Comprehensive climate action cannot take place without integration of gender considerations in finance. However, financial systems and instruments across the globe continue to remain inadequate in this aspect. Global evidence suggests that increased participation of women at all levels in the financial sector, the junior and leadership alike, holds immense potential for improved and highly effective climate action. This points to the need of exemplifying the role of women in greening of the financial system.
