How can we redirect financial flows towards a sustainable, climate-friendly economy? 💶 🌍

The policy brief “Financing the green transition”, published as part of a research project by Witten/Herdecke University and the Institute for Ecological Economy Research (IÖW) – funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR) – addresses this question.

Our current solution to the conundrum is to ramp up accounting and reporting of environmental and social impact.

This is not a trivial step, nor is it automatically #greenwashing. Formally recognizing an issue as something to be measured is part of the socioeconomic transformation process.

But for as long as there is a dichotomy between "financial" (monetary) objectives and sustainability objectives we are but in phase 1

#sustainablefinance requires that we reinvent the financial system

For #sustainablefinance to really succeed it must become the only kind of financial system that is possible.

For as long as #sustainability is a discretionary objective that relies on people's awareness of their behavior impact and moral disposition (towards other people and future generations) its going to be a losing game.

Not because we are intrinsically evil / stupid, but because its not a viable expectation from individuals in an overcomplex, interconnected, decentralized economy.

"Almost 500 bankers commit to acting with integrity and professionalism by taking the banker’s oath"

ok, that could be the start of a joke and its all too easy to be cynical 🤣 but it is a fact that the profession of the "banker" must be redefined to become a positive catalyst.

An economy does not run itself, it needs financial plumbing reflecting its values and ideals and in the digital era everything is once again up for grabs.
