Reshaping Australia’s finance system
About the Australian Sustainable Finance Institute
The Australian Sustainable Finance Institute (ASFI) has been established to realign the Australian financial services system so that more money flows to activities that will create a sustainable, resilient and inclusive Australia. We do this by coordinating, facilitating and driving implementation of the Australian Sustainable Finance Roadmap.

ASFI Supports the Uluru Statement from the Heart
ASFI supports the Uluru Statement from the Heart and the establishment of an Indigenous Voice to Parliament as the first step of its implementation. ASFI has been established to realign Australia’s financial system so that it supports a more sustainable, resilient and inclusive Australia.
Recognition of the First Nations people of Australia, and support for better outcomes for First Nations Peoples is an important foundation to achieving that mission.
The Australian Sustainable Finance Roadmap has a strong focus on self-determination, and the right of Free Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) for First Nations Peoples in Australia. This provides the basis for our support. ASFI’s work to elevate First Nations Peoples perspectives and outcomes into all our work on sustainable finance over the last 2 years is a demonstration of our ongoing commitment to self-determination and FPIC as an organisation.
We will continue to work with partners, particularly First Nations organisations and people, to support self-determination, FPIC and reconciliation in Australia, including through the development and implementation of our Reconciliation Action Plan and our First Nations work program.
