Climate Investment in Latin America
Summary
The report argues that achieving Paris Agreement goals in Latin America requires comprehensive policy frameworks and long-term visions to provide the planning certainty necessary to mobilise private capital for decarbonisation.
Key insights
- To attract low-carbon investments, governments must implement national climate plans and updated NDCs that feature clearly defined mitigation measures and sector-level targets aligned with long-term decarbonisation goals.
- Investment certainty and innovation are stimulated when governments clearly communicate commitments to phase out harmful policies and high-carbon technologies, specifically fossil fuel subsidies.
- There is a need for alignment between domestic budgets, public support measures, and climate goals to ensure that financial signals incentivise decarbonisation rather than working against climate efforts.
