The association will continue to broaden channels for direct financing in green finance, innovate green financing products, and guide social capital toward green industries. It will consciously integrate the implementation of green finance with the fulfillment of social responsibilities, the prevention and resolution of social risks, and the acceleration of business structural adjustments. By doing so, it will foster and promote the concept of sustainable green development and establish a long-term mechanism for the development of green finance.

　　In his speech, Zhang Zhaoyi stated that over the years, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange has taken a series of measures to support green development: first, by supporting the growth of green industries; second, by encouraging listed companies to fulfill their green responsibilities; third, by promoting innovation in green financial products and services, thereby attracting investors from various sectors to participate in the development of green industries; and fourth, by enhancing the sense of responsibility and mission for green development. Moving forward, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange will fully leverage its role as a market platform and its advantage in aggregating innovative capital, actively fulfilling its responsibility in building an ecological civilization, and pooling and unleashing new momentum for green development.

　　Li Dansheng, Chairman of the Alashan Ecological Foundation, introduced that the foundation’s total area of afforestation and greening has now exceeded 230,000 mu, completing ahead of schedule—two years earlier than planned—the first-century goal of the three-century development strategy.

　　When introducing the Shenzhen Emissions Exchange, Zhao Gaidong stated that Shenzhen was among the first cities in China to launch carbon trading as part of the nation’s seven pilot programs for carbon emissions trading. Since the launch of trading in 2013, six years have now passed. Over these years of development, Shenzhen has effectively controlled its overall emissions and greenhouse gas emissions, which have generally shown a slow downward trend. Through carbon finance mechanisms, the company has helped several large-emitting enterprises overcome financial challenges. As a trading platform and a hub for social resources, the Shenzhen Emissions Exchange will further embrace green finance as its future development direction and hopes to play an even greater role in the ecological and environmental development of Alashan.
