Transition Finance Council

The purpose of the Transition Finance Council is to drive forward the roadmap and recommendations set out in the Transition Finance Market Review and to establish the UK as the global hub for raising and deploying transition finance. 

From November 2025 to 30 January 2026, the Transition Finance Council is consulting on draft entity-level Transition Finance Guidelines and a new draft Implementation Handbook on how to apply the Transition Finance Guidelines. With the assistance of a working party of cross-association representatives and AREF's ESG & Impact Investing Committee, AREF will be responding to the consultation.
