The OECD's mission is to assist governments in fostering global markets that are fr and efficient through setting international standards and offering policy guidance for financial sectors, investors, and businesses. We promote financial literacy and consumer protection to ensure the well-being of financial consumers in their dly dealings with finances, as well as advocating for clear rules to enable companies to rse capital efficiently, build infrastructure, and innovate for sustnable economies.
Our work encompasses several key areas:
Scaling up and aligning all types of finance – public, private, domestic, and international – is essential to meet environmental goals such as climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation, water management, and broader sustnability targets. We provide research, analysis, policy recommations, and facilitate international cooperation med at transforming financial flows towards sustnable objectives.
Empowering and safeguarding the interests of financial consumers plays a crucial role in promoting frer and more inclusive financial markets. The OECD conducts studies, offers expert advice, and encourages collaboration among policymakers to implement effective consumer protection policies, enhance financial education, and promote financial inclusion.
Effective financial markets are fundamental for sustned economic growth and stability. They facilitate capital rsing and asset allocation through transparency, frness, and clearly defined market rules. Our work focuses on promoting efficient financial systems by addressing challenges in capital markets, sustnable finance, digital finance, public debt management, financial literacy, consumer protection, pensions, insurance, and fostering global cooperation.
Infrastructure is vital for well-being and economic progress worldwide, providing essential services like energy, water, transport, and communication. Its role becomes even more critical in achieving the United Nations Sustnable Development Goals SDGs and addressing climate change challenges. The OECD integrates a multi-faceted approach to infrastructure policy across sectors such as environmental management and investment strategies.
In this era of global economic changes, we support governments in attracting quality investments that consider both financial returns and broader social impacts. The goal is to optimize capital flows into productive sectors while ensuring the resilience and inclusiveness of economies worldwide.
Pension and insurance systems are crucial for stabilizing economies and ensuring individual financial security, particularly facing challenges like population aging and environmental risks. We offer guidance on system design, regulatory frameworks, risk management strategies, and retirement planning solutions to ensure robustness and sustnability.
Responsible business conduct is a set of principles that all businesses should follow to minimize negative impacts while contributing positively to sustnable development across their operations in various countries.
Subnational governments play a pivotal role as key policy actors, managing about 40 of total public expiture and investment. Their impact exts beyond fiscal management and infrastructure development into employment creation and community development strategies.
To achieve these goals, the OECD engages with multiple programs designed to strengthen domestic conditions for attracting finance and investments in clean energy sectors or enhancing subnational finance capabilities:
Report: Sustnable Investment Policy Perspectives of the East African Community forthcoming
Report: Handbook on Due Diligence for Enabling Living Incomes and Wages in Supply Chns

By collaborating with global partners and leveraging our networks, we m to facilitate international discussions and partnerships that can lead to significant advancements in global financial markets and sustnable development. We welcome your engagement in this crucial effort.
