Co-chair: GIP Secretariat
GIP Secretariat Liaison: CHEN Lin (chenl@pbcsf.tsinghua.edu.cn)
As an important mandate, the GIP Secretariat will be responsible for overseeing the progress of implementation and will encourage reporting from its signatories. We also understand that different signatories are at varying stages of implementing the principles and their capacity in delivering green investments differs. The Secretariat foresees a gradual adoption and implementation of the principles, based on the varied capacity of the GIP signatories and the availability of tools and methodologies for implementation. Different signatories may also be at different stages of reporting using different template, including what and how to report. For the first year, the signatories will report against their progress of implementation using their existing methodologies, which will vary between firms.
The Secretariat will develop a template based on international best practices for consideration and adoption by the GIP signatories. Based on the individual reporting received from each GIP signatory, the Secretariat will compose an annual report on implementation of the principles and publish the report on its website, after consultation with all signatories, supporters and experts from stakeholder institutions.
