Key Topics

The Institute of International Finance focuses its advocacy, research and convening power on key topics of importance to our members, including sustainable finance, digital finance, risk and regulation, and debt. IIF is committed to providing our members with events, webinars, roundtables, workshops, podcasts, research reports and more to help them stay ahead of the curve.

Sustainable Finance

The IIF identifies and promotes capital markets solutions that support the development and growth of sustainable finance, with transition finance and blended finance as key components. We partner with representatives from major institutional investors, commercial banks, insurance companies, ratings agencies, as well as public sector collaborators to scale the sustainable finance market, globally, and help shape official sector initiatives that address the environmental, social and governance concerns impacting the finance industry.  In addition, the IIF advocates for sustainable finance policies that prioritize prudential risk management, financial stability, and economic growth.

Digital Finance

The IIF is leading efforts to help our members and the public sector understand and leverage the technology-driven transformations reshaping financial services. We focus on distributed ledger technology, artificial intelligence and machine learning, quantum computing, data policy, digital identity, cloud, and other technologies. Our industry-leading work on digital asset regulation engages global standard setting bodies and central banks to help understand and shape the development of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and private tokenization solutions. We advocate for financial services innovation as well as making cross-border payments more efficient and our events bring together senior public sector officials, financial services leaders, and technology experts.

Risk and Regulation

The IIF is the leading voice for the financial services industry on global regulatory and policy issues. The IIF engages continuously and constructively with global standard setters and other policymakers through formal submissions, staff papers and reports, as well as through regular dialogue, targeted events, industry surveys, and podcasts. We help shape the global policy and regulatory agenda by providing industry input and feedback on critical issues such as sustainable finance, international capital and liquidity standards for banks and insurers, resolution, non-bank financial intermediation, accounting standards, combatting financial crime, operational resilience, cyber security, and crypto-assets.
