Standpoint: Sustainable financing for rail transport

Worldwide, there are efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through emission-free transport systems and by shifting transport to rail. For railway companies, investing in climate protection not only makes environmental sense, but also opens up new financing opportunities.

In an interview with IRJ Editor-in-Chief Kevin Smith, Sebastian Blum, Global Head of Mobility, looks at the manifold opportunities and challenges of sustainable financing in rail transport and the role of KfW IPEX Bank in this area.
