Climate Finance and Greener Finance
Shifting the way finance works and where investments flow is a critical focus of climate policy and driver of action. Finance for climate action needs to span the full range of policy challenges from mitigation to adaptation, to loss and damage. Of particular importance is the need to ensure sufficient flows of North-South financing to support climate action at scale in developing countries – whether it be to invest in capacity building, policy, and institutional reforms, or more climate resilient development. More recently, a focus is on climate-relevant policy reforms in finance systems themselves, where topics range from actions to be taken by international financial institutions, including multilateral development banks, by central banks, or regional or national development banks; in commercial banking; or by actors in the institutional investor arena. This special collection showcases current research on a full range of climate finance topics.
