BES-policy: discussion

1. The basics for policies: are KPI’s applicable, what are the proxy’s (like CO2 for resource efficiency)

2. The basics for a level playing field: does NVI do (input) or do we need reliable output-data?

3. (How) do we cross the border between the investments-and the loans-portfolios?

4. Education of staff: how to use their personal commitment into a professional setting?

5. How to use common resources of UNEPFI-members in a pre-competitive environment?
