Moselener defines 3 categories of Policy Instruments for real economy transformation
Professor of Sustainable Energy Finance at Frankfurt School Dr. Ulf Moslener has defined three categories of Policy Instruments for real economy transformation.
The first category is “Traditional” instruments which include technology control, standards; damage control, prohibition; and liability, he said.
The category is “Market” based instruments which include bargaining, emission taxes, and emissions trading.
The third category is “Other” instruments which include Renewable Obligations & Feed-in-Tariffs, Tax incentives, Investment Subsidies, and Regulating Financial Markets.
He made the remarks during the Sustainable Finance Workshop which was held within the framework of the 14th CSR & Sustainable Development Forum, currently held in the Red Sea resort city Sharm El Sheikh.
He also expounded that potential transformational action comprises transparency on climate performance of the fund, performing climate risk analysis, knowledge about climate performance of the fund constituents, and policy engagement to support a changing investment environment.
