A strong and predictable enabling environment is critical to help countries plan, implement, and accelerate investments in a low carbon and resilient economy. With technical assistance funding, Climate Investment Funds (CIF) has successfully supported governments to address regulatory gaps, design and execute measures to kickstart markets for green goods and services, and undertake activities complementary to capital investments. CIF ensures that all stakeholders, particularly vulnerable communities, benefit from technical assistance interventions.
On October 18, 2022, CIF is launching a new report entitled 'Enablers: The Role of Enabling Environment in Scaling Up Climate Finance', based on CIF lessons learned on the crucial role of technical assistance. A launch event hosted by CIF and the UK Government will take place in London to formally introduce and share the report findings.
Mafalda Duarte, CIF’s CEO, will launch the report. Speakers will discuss key takeaways on financial efficiency, enabling environment and innovation. Perspectives from participating countries will be shared notably by Dipak Patel from South Africa’s Presidential Climate Commission, Krishan Singh Barguzar, from the State Bank of India, and Joko Tri Haryanto, from Indonesia’s Ministry of Finance. CIF’s Abhishek Bhaskar will provide background to the study and convene a group of experts and donors from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
