Virtual regional workshop (20th January, 2021) Co-hosted by SBN and the Moroccan Capital Market Authority: Ms. Nezha HAYAT opening remarks

29 January 2021NewsMaria Ismaili

Dear SBN members,

First, I wish you all a happy new year 2021, and welcome you to this virtual workshop
dedicated to sustainable finance and to the preparation of the 2021 SBN global progress
report, Co-hosted by SBN and the Moroccan Capital Market Authority.

I am also delighted to see that among the attendees are fellow regulators that we had the
occasion to work with on sustainable finance related projects such as the development of
national frameworks.

I am convinced that this workshop is a unique exchange opportunity since it gathers
representatives from 3 geographic regions, each one having a particular perspective and
experience on developing sustainable financial markets.

This is particularly relevant as sustainable development is by definition a global endeavor, which requires combined and coordinated efforts of all stakeholders. indeed, collaboration is key for ensuring the green transition of our respective economies.

Sustainable finance is a broad term that includes a large number of concepts and practices aimed at fostering the financing of the SDGs and the management of ESG risks that have become a particularly pressing priority at the global scale. Moreover, amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, sustainable finance presents real opportunities for accelerating the post-Covid recovery of our economies and enhancing their resilience.
