据能源经济6月10日消息称，新加坡中央银行已向五家资产管理公司拨款18亿美元，以保护其投资组合免受气候变化风险的影响，并帮助这个城市国家推动环境可持续项目。
气候变化和其他绿色问题是许多政府的首要任务，金融监管机构也在修改规则，迫使企业更好地披露其对环境的影响。
在周三的新闻发布会上，新加坡金融管理局( MAS )董事总经理Ravi Menon表示，这些资金来自新加坡官方外汇储备，是央行绿色投资计划的一部分。
他说:“我们的目标是在不同的气候情况下降低投资组合的风险，抓住向低碳未来过渡的投资机会，并支持投资组合公司的转型。”
MAS 的官员表示，资产管理公司的名字未披露，他们将管理专注于气候变化和环境的新股票和固定收益任务。他们还将在新加坡设立亚太可持续发展中心，并启动新的环境、社会和治理专题区域基金。
Menon表示：“这只是开始，未来还有更多的事情要做。”
在概述央行首份年度可持续发展报告时，Menon表示，MAS将在2022年底前，在一系列气候变化情景下，对金融业进行压力测试。

Singapore places $1.8 billion for green investments
Singapore's central bank has allocated $1.8 billion with five asset managers as part of moves to protect its portfolio from climate change risks and aid the city-state's efforts to promote environmentally sustainable projects.
Climate change and other green issues are a top priority for many governments, and financial regulators are also changing rules to force companies to better disclose their environmental impact.
At a news conference on Wednesday, Ravi Menon, managing director of Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said the funds were placed from Singapore's official foreign reserves as part of the central bank's green investment program.
"We aim to reduce risks to the portfolio across different climate scenarios, seize investment opportunities from the transition to a lower carbon future and support the transition of portfolio companies," he said.
MAS' officials said the asset managers, whose names were not disclosed, will manage new equity and fixed income mandates focused on climate change and the environment. They will also set up Asia-Pacific sustainabilty hubs in Singapore and launch new environmental, social and governance thematic regional funds.
"This is just the beginning, there is more to come," said Menon.
While outlining the central bank's inaugural annual sustainability report, Menon said MAS will conduct stress tests on the financial industry by end-2022 under a range of climate change scenarios.
