During the Sustainable Brands Türkiye conference, I put together a panel on “From Goal to Action: Transforming Global Finance.”

With six years to go until the target date for Sustainable Development Goals, we see that only 17% of the SDGs are aligned with the targets. One of the most important issues to address this gap is closing the financing shortfall.

Together with amazing panelists from the leading Turkish banks, we discussed the global developments in sustainable finance, instruments available in Türkiye, how corporations can transform to access sustainable finance, alignment with international trends, and EU Taxonomy implications for Türkiye.
