Shaping the climate transition: multistakeholder networks, elites, and green finance policy in Europe
Daniel Tischer (University of Bristol) & Tomaso Ferrando (University of Antwerp)
In this paper, we explore the individual and institutional relationships that operate behind the emerging market for Green Financial instruments across Europe and how that may influence national and EU-level narratives and policy making. Using network analytic tools, we explore the various types of actors that partake in different policy-focused and multistakeholder spaces at national- and EU-level between 2016 and 2021. Our analysis provides insights into the different compositions of these spaces and identifies key organisational actors and individuals that partake in multiple meetings. We argue that the this enables elites to coordinate the narrative around what Green Finance ought to be and in doing so, may provide these elites to advance their own and collective market and profit-oriented agenda whilst limiting outside voice and influence of non-market actors.
