Data that indicate the carbon footprint of the financial sector's investments, which can be used to gauge the degree of exposure of the sector to transition risks. Data that indicate 'physical risks' due to climate change through loans and investments. Data that indicate the extent to which financial institutions have invested in bonds aimed at promoting sustainability, the socalled green bonds.
Of course, these data are not yet complete, but they are urgently needed. Today, not tomorrow. Because we need to know as much as we can to take on our role as long-term economic advisers. Not only for the financial institutions we supervise and advise, but as policy advisers for our governments. Nationally and internationally.
