Abstract

The Chinese central government determined that the focus of future economic work should be on the adjustment of economic structure and the transformation of development mode. The comprehensive transition to a low-carbon economy would be the main direction of China’s future economic development. Finance, an important means and approach for the optimization of resource allocation and redistribution of funds, will definitely play a major role in the development of a low-carbon economy in China.
