    TASKFORCE ON NATURE-RELATED FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES (TFND)

We are proud to announce that EXIM Bank is now a member of the global Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) Forum. 

 

The TNFD Forum is a global multi-disciplinary consultative group and brings together a diverse range of institutions, including corporates, financial institutions, public sector bodies (including regulators), pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, academic and research organisations, business associations, inter-governmental organisations, conservation groups, and civil society organisations. Membership is granted on an institutional or organisational basis. TNFD strives to enhance global economic resilience by redirecting funding towards activities aligned with the Paris Agreement, Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, and UN Sustainable Development Goals.

 

Benefits of being a TNFD Forum Members include:

 

  • Regular update on Taskforce’s work – Forum members receive exclusive newsletters and participate in webinars hosted by the TNFD Secretariat.
  • Opportunities to support the technical work of the Taskforce – Institutions may be invited to provide technical contributions inputs related to specific Taskforce Working Groups and research projects.
  • Learning and capacity building webinars – The forum provides a platform for knowledge sharing and learning opportunities with global technical expert speakers

We are the only other bank in Malaysia to join the forum. There are 8 other institutions from Malaysia on the forum which includes amongst others – Bank Negara Malaysia, Bursa Malaysia Berhad, Petronas and Sunway Berhad. Internationally, Bank of America (USA), Bank of England (UK), Blackrock (UK), BNP Paribas (Fr), Barclays PLC (UK), Mebuki Financial Group, Inc (JPN) and Citi (USA), just to name a few, are also TNFD Forum members. At EXIM Bank, we are firmly committed to addressing the most existential planetary crises of climate change and biodiversity loss. We recognise that these challenges are interconnected and must be tackled collectively; neither can be successfully resolved in isolation.

 

We will keep everyone informed on the learning opportunities arising from the forum membership.

    CONFERENCE OF THE PARTIES (COP28)

Climate change is a pressing global challenge. As we confront this crisis, Conference of the Parties (COP28) emerges as a crucial forum for international collaboration. Among those who are expected to attend the forum in Dubai this week are Bill Gates, King Charles III, Rishi Sunak, John Kerry, Simon Stiell, Madeleine Diouf Sarr, to name a few. Notably, we take pride in the fact that for the very first time EXIM Bank, co-organised a panel at COP28 under the theme: Leveraging Islamic Finance for Sustainability. This initiative reflects the Bank’s commitment in creating global impact and advocating Islamic Finance in shaping sustainable financial practices.
 
Our President / Chief Executive Officer’s statement featured at COP28:
 
“Acts of environmental degradation are passed on to future generations who have no say on the decisions that we make today. Our role is to remove developmental distortions in all of its different forms. Islamic finance and values provide the template to achieve a just equilibrium between resources and claims.” – Arshad Ismail, PCEO EXIM Bank Malaysia
