The event was opened by Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, who Mr Alsina said managed to passionately underscore the “critical role of impact investments in fulfilling the fiduciary duty to investors”.

“His words resonated deeply, reaffirming Japan’s steadfast commitment to nurturing a sustainable financial ecosystem,” he affirmed.

“Prime Minister Kishida’s eloquent speech encapsulated the very essence of impact investing – a driving force that directs capital towards innovative solutions to address pressing global challenges,” Mr Alsina continued.

He concluded that his speech proved to be an “impassioned call to action” that resonates not only within Japan, but “reverberates globally, urging the world to invest in initiatives that create positive change for our planet and communities”.
