So, what is green financing?
Financing of investment that integrate environmental, social and governance into investment decisions. As a result, encouraging a more sustainable economy. Although these changes have been looked at previously, a new urgency has emerged. Realisation that the potential of green finance solutions or green fintech can change lives.
Let’s take a look at two UK FinTech’s that are leading the way in green financing.
CarbonChain offers carbon accounting products that create openings for industries to access green financing. They quantify the carbon footprints of companies’ trade finance portfolio to identify the transactions that pose the most risk in terms of rising carbon prices. In addition, they also offer carbon risk exposure assessments for clients.
