Hon JAMES SHAW: Developing sustainable long-term solutions to the climate crisis requires good ideas, planning, and focus. New Zealand Green Investment Finance Ltd was set up to support those businesses with the skills and outlook necessary to create lasting change in New Zealand. Throwing money around with no eye to commercial viability will not funnel support to the firms with the best plans and the best ideas. By ensuring commercial discipline, New Zealand Green Investment Finance Ltd will also be able to get their capital back and reinvest earnings into more low-carbon projects, creating a virtuous cycle of sustainable investment.
