Launch of the One Planet Data Hub

For its second year of existence, the Observatory exports internationally and contributes to the One Planet Data Hub project.

A PILOT PROJECT FOR THE ONE PLANET SUMMIT

The One Planet Summit announced today the launch of the One Planet Data Hub, which aims to encourage transparency in all economic and financial sectors and will serve as a global summary to give clarity to the monitoring and real impact of commitments. The French Observatory will contribute to this. Supported by the Financial Centers for Sustainability (FC4S), the Observatory has already reached its second year of operation and has met the dissemination objective set by the European Union in the framework of the LIFE grant. The Observatory will also be promoted during the COP 26.

Thierry Déau, President of Finance For Tomorrow and Chairman and CEO of Meridiam declared: « Finance for Tomorrow is proud of the work and publications of the Sustainable Finance Observatory and its Scientific and Expert Committee. With the monitoring and analyzing of commitments, it is in one year, two steps forward towards the objectives set in the Declaration of the Paris Financial Centre and the transparency of the transformation of the financial sector! »

Bruno Le Maire French Minister of the Economy, Finance and the Recovery declared : « The Observatory launched by the Paris financial center is a significant step forward in defining a financial center strategy for sustainable finance. It is at the origin of an essential exercise in transparency of financial data on climate change. This pioneering initiative should serve as an example for the One Planet Data Hub whose launch are announced today ! »
