📄 Abstract（原文）
Despite the growing recognition of green finance as an important tool for advancing sustainabledevelopment, there is a lack of a comprehensive legal provisions that mandates green financialpractices in Nigeria, and existing policies lack the necessary enforcement mechanisms,incentives, and clarity to attract significant investment in environmentally sustainable projects.Also, the absence of standard definitions and taxonomies places a limit on effective mobilizationand deployment of green finance. These shortcomings can significantly impede Nigeria's abilityto transition to a low-carbon economy, meet its climate commitments, and achieve itssustainable development goals. Therefore, this article examines the legal and institutionalframeworks that govern green finance in Nigeria, highlighting their role in advancing sustainabledevelopment. Using doctrinal methodology, it explores existing laws, policies, and institutionalmechanisms, identifies regulatory gaps, and proposes actionable recommendations to strengthenNigeria’s green finance landscape. The study finds that there is still a need for strong legal andinstitutional frameworks that support green finance in Nigeria because the availability of theseframeworks provides the regulatory structure, financial mechanisms, and policy directionneeded to align Nigeria’s economic growth with environmental sustainability. It isrecommended amongst other things, that Nigeria should enact a Green Finance Act thatmandates green finance practices across sectors, including financial institutions, corporations,and investors to ensure effective alignment with sustainability growth.
