11:45-13:00 | Session I: Financing a Just Transition Policy makers should play close attention to those firms that may be negatively impacted by the economic transition toward greater sustainability, especially high GHG-emitting firms, such as those in the coal and oil sectors. Constrained access to finance for these firms, in turn, could create sizeable economic inefficiencies, especially in countries in which high GHG-emitting sectors represent a large share of the economic activity. Access to financing for these high CO2 emitting firms that seek to transition to greener, low-carbon activities—dubbed transition finance—is thus important for a smooth transition toward more sustainable practices. The invited speakers will share their views on a key question for developing transition finance: how to support access to finance for these high emitting firms, while mitigating investor risks related to stranded assets and green washing. They will also share their insights on global trends, relevant country practices, and regulatory challenges of developing transition finance, including the role of taxonomies.

14:00-15:15 | Session II Taxonomies and principles in support of climate transition The ASEAN Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance was released on November 2021, providing a common language for sustainable finance among the ten ASEAN Member States. The ASEAN Taxonomy has been considered as a necessary and timely green and sustainability development progress in the region. In the meantime, voices have been heard in different markets and jurisdictions to enhance comparability and interoperability among different taxonomies or standards to reduce the risk of greenwashing, such as for cross-border capital flows. China and the EU worked under the IPSF and launched the Common Ground Taxonomy (CGT) based on a comprehensive and detailed comparison between China's green bond taxonomy and the EU’s Sustainable Finance Taxonomy, with an aim to enhance comparability and interoperability between the two taxonomies. This session will invite experts to share their thoughts on taxonomies and principles and their roles to support the global efforts of climate transition.

16:30-17:45 | Session III A Sustainability Disclosure and Reporting Requirements Enhanced sustainability disclosures and reporting standards are the cornerstone for further development of the global sustainable finance markets, including those in the Southeast Asia region. As highlighted in the report on Sustainable Finance in South-East Asia, they not only improve market transparency, but also support the decision-making processes of financial market participants and enterprises in the real economy. With more jurisdictions ramp up environmental regulation in the race to net zero, financial institutions and corporates are also asked to transition their balance sheet to a low-carbon and green one, including through the development of transition financing tools. While the debate on transition finance goes on, the discussion on sustainability disclosure also gains attractions. This session will invite both regulators and relevant standard setters to share their insights on sustainability reporting and how they could help stakeholders better embark on a sustainable trajectory.
