“Export Credit Agency of Kazakhstan participated in the VII Plenary Session of the Green Investment Principles”
The VII Plenary Session of the Green Investment Principles (GIP) was held in Hong Kong — a flagship annual event of the Belt and Road initiative, bringing together leading financial institutions and sustainability experts.
Traditionally, the GIP Plenary serves as an important platform for reviewing annual results, presenting the annual report, discussing strategic directions, and sharing best practices in green finance and ESG transformation.
This summer, the Agency joined the international initiative “Green Investment Principles for the Belt and Road (GIP)” by signing an agreement of participation.
Currently, the initiative unites 50 global institutions from 17 countries with total assets exceeding USD 40 trillion. These include the largest international and regional financial organizations, major Chinese banks, as well as commercial banks and insurance companies from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Switzerland, the UAE, Thailand, Morocco, and other institutional investors actively engaged in developing the green economy.
For Kazakhstan, participation in the GIP initiative holds strategic importance. By joining the Green Investment Principles, the Agency demonstrates consistent implementation of the strategy of its sole shareholder — the National Managing Holding “Baiterek” — aimed at sustainable economic development, promoting ESG principles, and supporting national businesses on the path towards decarbonization.
Participation in the GIP session also provided the Agency with the opportunity to expand international partnerships, strengthen expert dialogue, and contribute to the global transformation of the financial system towards climate resilience and low-carbon growth.
