In the interest of promoting best practices in the financial sector and encouraging debate on the role of productive agents in the preservation of the environment and financial inclusion, the Third Latin American Congress of Sustainable and Inclusive Banking will be held in the country, organized by the Association of Multiple Banks of the Dominican Republic (ABA) and the Latin American Federation of Banks (Felaban).
“In the current context, where sustainable development is fundamental, the congress is established as a key platform for meaningful discussions and the promotion of collaboration between governments and private leadership,” they maintained.
They reported that representatives of regional organizations, banking executives, businessmen and experts in the areas of inclusion and sustainability will meet on May 14 and 15 in Santo Domingo to share their perspectives and experiences, ranging “from inspiring success stories in banking to innovative sustainable solutions and inclusive strategies.”
They expressed that one of its main thematic axes will explore the regulatory frameworks and public policies aligned with the objectives of Basel and the Paris Agreement, seen from the perspectives of regional and local entities linked to compliance and execution of these regulations.
The ABA and Felaban pointed out that the event will address innovation in thematic financial instruments such as green bonds, biodiversity bonds and the blue economy.
