The Australian sustainable finance taxonomy provides a common language for green and transition finance in Australia, supporting the allocation of capital towards activities that enable Australia’s net zero ambitions.
A sustainable finance taxonomy is a classification system identifying economic activities that deliver on key climate and/or other sustainability objectives by reference to specific performance metrics.
The development of an Australian taxonomy for climate change mitigation was a joint initiative between the Australian Government and finance sector, led by the Australian Sustainable Finance Institute.
