Sustainable Finance Platform
The financial sector, supervisory authorities and ministries together play a role in making the Netherlands more sustainable. They work together within the Sustainable Finance Platform.
Purpose of the platform
DNB established the platform in 2016, with the aim of promoting sustainability in the Netherlands, for example by removing barriers to sustainable financing and collaborating on sustainability initiatives.
Read the platform's vision, strategy and operating principles here.
What does the platform do?
The platform's working groups select a number of themes to work on. Each working group represents a wide range of parties from the financial sector and other relevant actors. The working group members work out a theme together and present their findings. The platform meets three times a year.
