The Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) has released a report urging the next UK government to prioritize investment in a greener economy. The group warns that the UK is at risk of falling behind in meeting its net zero targets and losing its status as a climate leader. The report contains 10 policy recommendations, including the development of a whole-of-government approach and a comprehensive green industrial strategy. The IIGCC's call for action comes in the wake of concerns raised by the UK Sustainable Investment and Finance Association about the UK's leadership in sustainable finance. The report highlights barriers to achieving net zero, such as the government's decentralised approach, and proposes solutions, including the establishment of a permanent home for the Green Technical Advisory Group.
