Climate action requires significant investment but this is challenging in a landscape characterised by inflationary pressures and economic uncertainties. Inflationary pressures can put stress on climate related infrastructure projects, renewable energy initiatives and sustainable business ventures. Yet doing nothing is not an option. Derisking climate investment is essential for driving forward the green transition, bolster climate resilience and unlock sustainable investments. To do so, will require greater partnership between public and private sector actors.

This session will explore: 

  • How can investors, financial institutions and governments effectively manage inflationary risks while pursuing climate aligned investments? 
  • What are the strategies and tools available to businesses and governments to derisk climate investments? 
  • How do we better leverage public finances to attract private investment for speedier implementation?
