Annulation du Climate Finance Day : un mauvais signe pour la finance verte

The author contends that the cancellation of the Climate Finance Day, organized by the Institut de la Finance durable (IFD), signals a failure by Bruno Le Maire and Paris financial actors to establish the city as a capital of green finance. The text highlights a perceived shift back toward 'climaticide' finance, noting that previous requests for financial actors to exit unconventional oil and gas were not enforced. Furthermore, the author expresses concern that the upcoming revision of the ISR label may fail to exclude fossil fuel companies like TotalEnergies, thereby undermining the goal of mobilizing French savings for the energy transition.

• The cancellation of the annual Climate Finance Day, organized by the Institut de la Finance durable (IFD), is viewed as evidence that Bruno Le Maire and major financial actors are abandoning the goal of making Paris a center for green finance.
• The author claims that Bruno Le Maire retreated from a 2020 request for financial actors to adopt exit plans for unconventional oil and gas, instead commissioning a report from Yves Perrier to align French finance with the Paris Agreement.
• There is a risk that the upcoming revision of the ISR label will fail to exclude fossil fuel companies such as TotalEnergies, which would signify a failure to mobilize French savings for the transition.
