The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Federal Insurance Office (FIO) has announced its decision to withdraw from the Network of Central Banks and Supervisors for Greening the Financial System (NGFS). This move aligns with President Trump's executive orders aimed at prioritizing American interests in international environmental agreements and energy policies.

The NGFS was established to support the objectives of the Paris Agreement, which the United States has exited. The initiatives undertaken by NGFS are seen as inconsistent with the current administration's focus on economic growth and job creation within the country. Additionally, it is noted that NGFS's role diverges from traditional technical and coordinating functions typical of other international forums.

Key areas within NGFS’s scope, particularly those related to monetary policy frameworks, extend beyond FIO’s primary responsibilities. Despite this withdrawal, FIO will maintain its collaboration with state insurance regulators and other relevant parties to advance U.S. interests in global insurance matters.
