IGES analyses green finance and investment trends, including green business and employment markets, with a view towards guiding a shift to cleaner economic growth.
Charting pathways towards a green economy helps achieve sustainable societies. We conduct practical research and cooperate with governments, academic institutions, and development banks and organisations to analyse green finance and investment, including finding ways to stimulate green jobs and green businesses in Asia and the Pacific.
