Parallel Session 2

Financing inclusive and green economies in developing countries creates many opportunities for finance institutions to drive sustainable development while opening up new markets and opportunities. At the same time, figuring out how to successfully deliver finance in developing country contexts can be challenging. This session will shine a light on several approaches that are helping private finance institutions to successfully flow finance to developing countries while advancing sustainability. Among the approaches that will be discussed are blended finance, integrating social criteria, small holder finance, seed funding, private sector engagement in the Green Climate Fund, and micro-insurance.
