In a new meeting of the Technical Roundtable on Sustainable Finance (MTFS), the Roadmap for the development of sustainable finance in Argentina was approved, as well as the implementation schedule of the activities that will guide the work in the short, medium and long term.

Sustainable finance is a key tool to promote the scalable mobilisation of the necessary resources to catalyse public and private investments that contribute to achieving economic, environmental and social objectives within the framework of the United Nations 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and, at the same time, to respond to climate change through the financing of mitigation and adaptation policies in line with the Paris Agreement, considering the current supervision and regulation policies.

Among the topics to be worked on during the second half of the year are the analysis of taxonomies on sustainable finance, the promotion and deepening of the market for social, green and sustainable bonds; the study of budgets with social, environmental and climate considerations; and the design of the National Strategy for Sustainable Finance with the support of various international organisations, such as the UNDP and the transversal assistance of the Inter-American Development Bank, an entity with which have been working together since its inception.
