Issues for the debate:
• Bringing a stock exchange perspective to the SDGs: The experience with promoting Environmental,
social, and governance (ESG) transparency among listed companies and innovative sustainability themed products (e.g. ESG indices, green bonds, etc.).
• What is the appropriate role for regulators and policymakers and what should be left to stock exchanges, investors and issuers?
• What practical steps are exchanges and regulators taking to integrate sustainable development into securities markets?
