Riyadh: HSBC Saudi Arabia announced the launch of the "HSBC Global Equity Climate Change Fund," today Wednesday- the country's first environmental initiative investment fund, the bank said in an emailed statement.


The new fund will provide eligible investors with exposure to renewable energy, clean transport, sustainable water management, and climate change adaptation.
