The third season of China Cleantech is focused on climate finance. With this first episode, we explore the theme of financial inclusion in China and its connection to climate change. Join us for a fascinating discussion with Dr. Xu Hu, Deputy Head of Research at the Chinese Academy of Financial Inclusion (CAFI) at Renmin University. What does being unbanked in China mean? How does extending financial services in rural areas support net zero carbon goals? How might reforming the 1,600 community banks operating in rural China lead to better climate outcomes? How can the three-layered retirement system in China work for investing in climate solutions? We explore this and more in our first episode of Season 3.
