Abstract

Currently, developing green finance and serving a green economy has become a global consensus. The European Union's (EU) sustainable finance has an early origin, rich development experience, and a relatively complete framework system. The EU Action Plan: Financing Sustainable Development provides strong guidance to promote sustainable finance, and this initiative stimulates interbank market regulators to act quickly to achieve the goal of sustainable development. Additionally, Through the plan, European standards for green finance business have been unified, which has dramatically improved the efficiency of green finance in the interbank market and helped to facilitate effective convergence among financial institutions. The EU's sustainable financial system has an extremely excellent hierarchy, clear guidelines, a solid foundation, and profound influence, and it provides important guidance and reference for the development of green finance in China.
