Global policy

Our Global Policy work promotes policy alignment, clarity and effectiveness across jurisdictions; through research and analysis on foundational financial and real economy policy reforms; in support of the PRI’s mission, its six principles, and our signatory policy expertise and engagement activities.

To this end, the PRI also engages with multilateral organisations, UN agencies and host governments of key international forums to support ambitious policy reforms on sustainable finance and real-economy policies in alignment with global sustainability goals.
