“We had to start somewhere.”

“We started the NGFS as a network of the willing, but we are moving more and more to having a network of the committed.”

“We want to see more engagement among the new joiners and active participation in the network.”

“NGFS membership cannot become a greenwashing opportunity for central banks that simply want to appear to be proactive on climate change.”

“We have managed to achieve a broader membership among emerging market countries. This is a concern that we’ve had in the past: whether the NGFS is just a network that’s made up of western countries, if it’s relevant for everyone else.”

“We’ve got our hands full.”

“For climate risk, the past is not a good predictor of the future.”
