Vision and Mission
The vision and mission of the GFT is to gather industry experts and provide policy suggestions
to regulators and market in developing green finance.
Founded in September 2024, the Green Finance Türkiye (GFT) provides a unique platform that supports the development of green finance and sustainable investments in Türkiye and beyond. It aims to mobilise both public and private sector resources and talents in developing green finance policies, to promote green finance business and product innovation within financial institutions. The GFT’s main goal is to position Türkiye as a leading international green tech and green finance hub by providing greater access and opportunities for Türkiye’s financial institutions and corporates to participate in green financing transactions locally and globally. This is in line with the global path to implementing the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement.
The GFT’s key activities are organised through five working groups, namely Sustainable Banking – Financing the Transition, Product Innovation and Solutions, Sustainability-related Disclosures, Policy and Standards. Currently, the working groups have members of over .... financial institutions and other key stakeholders.
