Net Zero Finance Tracker

The Net Zero Finance Tracker is an interactive dashboard that, in its beta version, tracks the private finance response to climate change in the United Kingdom. The dashboard provides two, first-of-their kind, assessments as interactive views: response by institution category (”Institutions”); and response by economic sector (“Real Economy”). The institutions view focuses on sources of finance for the low-carbon transition. It tracks institutions’ efforts to make investments and overall organizational practices consistent with the achievement of the Paris goals. The real economy view focuses on the use or destination of finance: climate outcomes in major sectors of the real economy.

The Net Zero Finance Tracker reveals that, while the financial response to climate change in the UK has picked up speed in recent years, we are falling far short of the level of response needed to align finance flows and portfolios with Paris Agreement goals.
