How international finance can help fight climate crisis
There is an urgent need for a global transformation to achieve net-zero by 2050. With national governments and international donors, Multilateral Development Banks like the EBRD are helping mobilise the private sector via country-led platforms to decarbonise and develop economies.
This episode of Investing for a Greener World features Vera Songwe, Co-chair of the Independent High-Level Expert Group on Climate Finance; Rania Al-Mashat, Egypt’s Minister of International Cooperation; Maya Hennerkes, Director of Green Financial Systems, Climate Strategy and Delivery at the EBRD and Reham ElBeltagy, CFO of Orascom Construction.
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, for a second year running, has teamed up with African Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the Caribbean Development Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, the Islamic Development Bank, the Nordic Investment Bank and the World Bank Group to show what international financial institutions are doing to address the climate crisis.
