In response to social, economic and climate change, sustainable development has become a key challenge for our society, and one that raises profound questions about our role as a central bank and how we operate. At the Banque de France, we take our economic, social, civic and environmental responsibilities to heart, and have embedded this way of thinking into all aspects of our central banking tasks.
“Mindful of our responsibilities as an economic player, we have incorporated sustainable development considerations into our long-term strategy as well as into the day-to-day conduct of our central banking operations.”
