WHAT Z/YEN SAYS ABOUT GLOBAL FINANCIAL CENTRES

This is the twelth edition of the Global Green Finance Index (GGFI 12). The GGFI is a factor assessment index, based on a range of instrumental factors - quantitative measures - and a worldwide survey of finance professionals’ assessments on the quality and depth of green finance offerings in financial centres.

The centres which perform well in the GGFI are generally places that commit to environmental improvements across the economy as well as directly in finance. Centres such as London, New York, and Geneva have a commitment to providing sustainable economic development and to building their skill base and green infrastructure.

It is updates every six months.

OPINION

Ranking that was created to assess the sustainable part of finances. The characteristics are very similar to the GFCI.

The methodology and sources are very transparent. The questionnaire is focused on green financial issues but, in the case of the indicators, this is not the case and, as a whole, they offer a global assessment of a city, not focused on green financial aspects.
