Integration of ESG Strategies and Methods in High-quality Infrastructure Investment in the New Era
Infrastructure plays a crucial role in supporting economic and social develop-ment.Despite significant achievements and alleviation of gaps and bottlenecks in China's infra-structure sector over the years,persistent deficiencies,weaknesses,and vulnerabilities re-main.Some areas continue to witness excessive investment and extensive development.Now,China is in a critical period of economic recovery,initiating infrastructure investment is deemed necessary.However,adopting indiscriminate measures or implementing strong stimulus in the general infrastructure sector is not advisable.This paper,grounded in reflections on urbanization and the infrastructure industry,proposes a model for high-quality infrastructure investment and current infrastructure investment cycle strategies.Through a thorough analysis of concepts,de-mands,roles,and investment strategy selection,the paper strives to integrate high-quality in-vestment with structural adjustments,addressing deficiencies,and strengthening weaknes-ses.The objective is to broaden the perspective of traditional risk analysis and management,in-corporating ESG factors into the investment process.The focus is on improving livelihoods,envi-ronmental protection,and enhancing areas with future development potential,forming a stable and forward-looking investment strategy.Simultaneously,in response to the current financing challenges in domestic infrastructure,the paper presents financial innovation strategies and methods to overcome these obstacles.
