The II Baku Forum on sustainable finance and investment has ended. The Deputy Minister of Economy Sahib Mammadov making a speech at the closing ceremony of the forum, emphasized the importance of the discussions and results obtained within the framework of the event in terms of sharing experiences and preparing road maps for joint activities in the direction of the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): “Discussions and presentations show that it is important to mobilize the private sector to implement the SDGs.
