Governments must play their part to incentivise the flow of investments into climate solutions and the transition to these solutions, given the significant costs. MP Mariam Jaafar said this in Parliament on Friday (Feb 24). She said by giving incentives to reduce the green premium, and through innovative risk-sharing and financing structures - including public-private partnerships - the Government can be the catalyst for a faster transition. Ms Mariam asked the Ministry of Finance for an update on how it is supporting Singapore’s transition to net-zero.
