We applaud South Africa’s G20 Presidency under the unifying and inspiring theme of Solidarity, Equality, and Sustainability.
This Presidency has already demonstrated its resolve by integrating Africa’s economic and industrial priorities into the global investment dialogue, seamlessly aligning domestic and international asset owner mandates with Climate and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
As Universal Owners, the African and global institutional investment community looks forward to working closely with South Africa’s G20 Presidency and its Presidential Economic Advisory Council. Through Institutional Investor-Public Partnerships (IIPPs) for Green Industrialisation, we can advance a shared vision for a more inclusive, equitable, and resilient global economy.
With converging agendas—from South Africa’s G20 Presidency and the Finance COP29 Presidency to the G7, the UN Financing for Development Summit, BRICS, and Brazil’s COP30 Presidency—2025 promises to be a watershed opportunity for mobilizing private capital at scale to accelerate green industrialisation in emerging markets and developing economies.
🌱 Let’s align public and private mandates to turn sustainable investment into equitable global progress for the benefit of people, planet, and nature.
