Montreal, world-class financial center in sustainable finance :
Finance Montréal aims to make sustainable finance a key element in the development and influence of the Québec financial industry. Our activities in this area are concentrated within the Finance and Sustainability Initiative (FSI) which brings together the players in the financial center of Montreal and Quebec who have at heart a financial sector that responds to environmental, social and governance issues (ESG ), while looking for positive spinoffs for the economy and communities.
The activities of the Finance and Sustainability Initiative translate into concrete actions aimed in particular at differentiating the province by the depth of its expertise in sustainable finance, strengthening collaborations between actors of the ESG ecosystem in Quebec and contributing to the international profile of Montreal as a leading financial center in this area. It also include a flagship annual event, the Sustainable Finance Summit in Montréal.
