Tóm tắt

Achieving the sustainable development goals is estimated to require additional financing on the order of 2.6 trillion dollars in emerging markets and low-income countries in 2030. A substantial increase in private investment is required to close this financing gap. Fortunately, institutional investors - who control the magnitude of funds needed - increasingly see sustainable, long-term investing and allocations in infrastructure as intriguing prospects. These investors face challenges to realize these opportunities, however. The investor forum held at the 2018 G20 Buenos Aires Summit, which included some of the world's largest investors, focused on solutions to these challenges. The resulting Buenos Aires call to action calls for a more regular dialogue with policy makers at the highest level and underlines the need to break away from the short-termism that plagues current investment strategies. It also highlights a series of concrete actions designed to increase the flow of sustainable long-term investments.
