At a regional conference in Tirana on implementing environmental, social and governance standards, Central Bank of the Republic of Kosovo Deputy Governor Nesrin Shileku-Shala outlined the central bank’s approach to integrating climate and environmental risks into financial sector oversight. She emphasized that these factors can affect businesses’ operations and financial sustainability, translating into financial risks that institutions must identify and manage. The central bank’s work includes its Strategic Roadmap for Climate and Environmental Risk Management 2025-2027, supervisory expectations for banks and the development of a World Bank-supported Green Dashboard. The dashboard is intended to strengthen monitoring and analysis of climate and environmental risks, supporting better risk management and more informed financing decisions.
