Deepening collaboration across sectors and stakeholders will help develop the necessary frameworks, regulations, education and incentives for scalable action. By showcasing three emission-intensive global corporations that are leading these transformations through their ability and willingness to create novel approaches to sustainability-related challenges, the paper addresses how governments, corporations, financial firms, investors and consumers can work together to help industries accelerate their own transitions towards a low carbon economy.

Mike Ryan, Head of UBS’s Sustainability and Impact Institute: “The first steps have been taken toward decarbonization but we’re now at a critical inflection point. The next green wave is on the horizon and further establishing and developing effective collaborative frameworks, targeted engagement, partnerships and innovative financial approaches will be essential if we are to capture the opportunities and achieve real, measurable and positive impact in the climate transition.” 

The paper concludes that the financial sector has an opportunity to create partnerships, innovate impactful and exciting financing options, mobilize capital in all its forms and drive effective solutions to move decarbonization of the real economy more quickly and more efficiently.
