Transition finance
Compare national policies on Transition finance across jurisdictions, through progress, institutions, and expectation structures.
What it is
A framework that channels finance to help high-emitting industries transition to decarbonization in stages — including taxonomies, transition bonds and disclosure of transition plans.
Implications for companies
Credible transition plans and disclosure affect financing costs and investor assessment. Standards are being built to avoid greenwashing.
Differences by country
The EU defines criteria for "sustainable" via its taxonomy. Japan has sectoral transition-finance roadmaps and climate transition bonds. Approaches differ by country.
What to watch
How to ensure the credibility of a transition — standards, third-party verification and disclosure — is the shared question.
