Sustainability in export finance

A progress report to the ICC White Paper on Sustainability in Export Finance was released this week and presented at the OECD. The original white paper, launched in 2021, is the first ever authoritative review of the state of sustainability in the export finance industry. It examines sustainability practices in export finance and provides policy recommendations to align the industry with the Sustainable Development Goals. Over a year later, the newly released progress report will serve as a 'report card' for the industry, assessing the extent to which the recommendations have or have not been adopted.
