Shifting the way finance works and where investments flow is a critical target of climate policy and driver of action. Finance for climate action needs to span the full range of policy challenges from mitigation to adaptation. Financing is also central to the functioning of the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement where there is a 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 climate-safe infrastructure. More recently, a focus is on climate-relevant policy reforms in finance systems themselves, where topics range from actions to be taken by central banks or national development banks, to those to be taken in commercial banking or the institutional investor arena. This collection showcases current research on a full range of climate finance topics.
