Banking on Green Buildings – United Nations Environment – Finance Initiative

The buildings sector offers a pathway for the financial sector to contribute to sustainability including climate and resource efficiency goals. The sector is both at risk and offers one of the largest opportunities for impact; evaluating the risks and rewards of investing in buildings that are energy-efficient and resilient to climate change is the financially responsible approach for commercial banks.
