How have central banks and regulators responded to the global economic crisis of the last 18 months, and to what extent have they contributed to a sustainable recovery?

This virtual London Climate Action Week event will be the final event in the series held by a research partnership comprising E3G, the Centre for Sustainable Finance at SOAS University of London, The South East Asian Central Banks (SEACEN) Research and Training Centre, and the Bennett Institute for Public Policy. It forms part of the Sustainable Crisis Responses project funded by the International Network for Sustainable Financial Policy Insights, Research & Exchange (INSPIRE) which has opened up a space to examine the options available to central banks and financial supervisors to respond to the current economic crisis in a way that is consistent with national and international commitments to environmental and sustainability goals.
