France and Sweden collaborate on green finance to boost transition to the low-carbon economy

French and Swedish finance ministers will strengthen their collaboration on green and sustainable finance to help lead the transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient global economy. The collaboration will be part of the French-Swedish strategic partnership for innovation, digital transformation and green solutions, which was signed by French President Emmanuel Macron and the Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven in November.

The partnership has identified four main action areas. The first area is green transport, clean energy, and smart systems, followed by green financing for climate resilient economies, digital transformation, and health and life sciences innovation.
