}

Summary

Launched in 2022, Sri Lanka's Green Finance Taxonomy categorizes green activities for financiers and businesses. Aligning with global standards and local priorities, it defines what's "green" for climate mitigation, adaptation, and other environmental goals. Though voluntary, it guides responsible investments, mobilizes capital towards green projects, and positions Sri Lanka as a sustainable finance leader.
