  • Insight

Jersey is committed to advancing sustainable finance and ensuring the island remains a competitive, globally aligned International Finance Centre (IFC). In spring 2024, the Government of Jersey launched a consultation to gather feedback on a policy and regulatory framework for sustainable finance. The consultation, presented as a green paper, ran until 26th April 2024.

The consultation aimed to engage a broad cross-section of the industry, helping stakeholders understand what sustainable finance means, why it’s important, and the opportunities it presents for Jersey. To support this engagement, we’ve produced a series of short, bite-sized videos that break down key concepts and share our views on the way forward.

Jersey has long been recognised as a hub of expertise and a conduit for global capital. The island’s financial services sector plays a vital role in supporting the global transition to a more sustainable future. Our approach is about striking the right balance—leveraging our strengths while ensuring we remain agile and responsive to global regulatory developments.

By embracing sustainable finance, Jersey can enhance its international reputation while managing the risks of falling behind in this fast-evolving space. This balanced approach will help ensure Jersey remains a leader in sustainable finance and continues to drive positive global impact.
