CBI’s response given yesterday to Government's greening finance report.

Rain Newton-Smith, CBI Chief Economist, yesterday said:

“Expanded standards for environmental reporting are key for supporting the transition to a greener financial system. Greater clarity on environmental impacts will help investors channel finance into projects that are aligned with net zero targets and will reduce carbon emissions across our economy.

"Business looks forward to working with the Government to design this new framework.”
