Asia Pacific’s economic landscape is being reshaped by unprecedented geopolitical and trade tensions. These pressures – from rising tariffs to protectionist policies and ongoing policy uncertainty – are expected to moderate the region’s growth trajectory.
Yet despite the challenging macroeconomic environment, Asia Pacific remains a bright spot in the global economy, united by a shared commitment to sustainable development and the urgent imperative to finance a sustainable future.
Policymakers, businesses and society at large must navigate these shifting geoeconomic realities, even while countries will vary significantly in their capacity to adapt and respond effectively. At this pivotal moment, the 2025 edition of Unlocking capital for sustainability – Singapore provides a crucial platform to mobilise innovative financing solutions that blend public and private capital, sustaining market-driven progress amid a fractured global trade environment.
This high-level forum will address a wide range of pressing issues, including reforming financial architectures to lower capital costs and scale climate-aligned investments, harnessing the accelerating impact of artificial intelligence, expanding disclosure mandates, strengthening compliance carbon markets, advancing and exploring the intersections of climate, health and resilience.
With COP30 in Brazil on the horizon, climate mitigation targets are gaining renewed momentum, underpinned by the growing recognition that sustainability-oriented investments generate jobs, income and long-term economic growth.
Spanning six Asian locations – Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and culminating in a closing summit in Singapore, Unlocking capital for sustainability 2025 invites key stakeholders to collaboratively address these critical challenges.
In its eighth edition, this flagship conference will accelerate the mobilisation of capital and innovation necessary to position Asia-Pacific as a global leader in financing the future.
