Moving from “billions to trillions;” tapping private-sector finance for climate-resilient, developing country infrastructure The transition to a global low-carbon, and climate-resilient energy future will likely require overcoming a massive investment gap. To help bridge the gap, development finance institutions (DFIs) are committed to increasing private sector financial participation to meet climate-related energy and infrastructure goals. The most likely sources of investment at the necessary scale are institutional investors. These large-scale investors may be ready for an interesting partnership with DFIs, according to a new publication by the OECD Development Center. However, accessing these funds will require a different approach than what the DFIs are used to. For a model, the authors say the DFIs should look to Green Investment Banks and Strategic Investment Funds, who have been highly effective at attracting private capital for climate-related investment.
