Sector privado: estrategia

The GCF's private sector strategy aims to mobilize private investment for climate action in developing countries, particularly for the most vulnerable, including LDCs, SIDS, and African states. The strategy is organized around four pillars: promoting a conducive investment environment, accelerating innovation in business models and technology, derisking market-creating investments, and strengthening national and regional financial institutions. To implement this, the GCF is introducing the Project-Specific Evaluation Approach (PSEA) to improve access for non-accredited private entities and is expanding its use of blended finance, including guarantees, equity, and insurance products. The fund also focuses on helping countries translate their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) into bankable investment plans while mitigating currency risks and avoiding increases in sovereign debt.

• The GCF's private sector portfolio has invested 3,418.6 million USD of GCF resources and mobilized 11,126.8 million USD in additional co-financing, with an initial heavy focus on climate mitigation and renewable energy projects funded via principal debt.
• The strategy employs a four-pillar approach to overcome investment barriers: creating a conducive investment environment, accelerating innovation in technologies and business models, derisking market-creating investments to attract private capital, and strengthening national and regional financial institutions.
• The GCF is implementing the Project-Specific Evaluation Approach (PSEA) in 2023 to provide a more agile and cost-effective path for non-accredited private entities to access funding for the demonstration or scaling of single projects.
• To address the climate finance gap, the GCF aims to increase the capacity of the approximately 260 public development banks in developing countries, which hold 5 trillion USD in assets and could potentially provide over 400,000 million USD in annual climate finance.
• The GCF identifies a significant gap in insurance coverage for the most vulnerable populations and intends to expand its support for climate-indexed insurance, parametric insurance, and micro-insurance to reduce losses in the poorest countries by up to 25%.
• The GCF is addressing currency risk for local Accredited Entities (AEs) and SMEs, noting that in Sub-Saharan Africa, energy service companies often fund technology in hard currency while receiving payments in local currency, leading to significant exposure if the local currency depreciates.
• The GCF aims to help developing countries translate their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) into bankable investment plans that align multiple funding sources and address regulatory gaps without increasing sovereign debt.
