Análisis de iniciativas de blended finance en Colombia en sectores estratégicos: energías renovables, agricultura sostenible y bioeconomía

This report analyzes blended finance initiatives in Colombia, focusing on sustainable agriculture, bioeconomy, and renewable energy to address structural financing gaps for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

• Colombia faces a structural financing gap to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), mirroring a broader trend in developing countries where the annual financing gap is estimated between USD 2.5 and 4 million.
• Blended finance—the strategic use of public or philanthropic capital to catalyze private investment—is viewed as a necessary approach to mobilize large-scale private capital, although its impact has been limited or difficult to measure due to a lack of standardization and a focus on isolated transactions.
• Commissioned by the United Nations in Colombia, the study maps blended finance transactions in three priority sectors: sustainable agriculture, bioeconomy, and renewable energy. The methodology included 17 semi-structured interviews with public and private actors, a multi-stakeholder dialogue with approximately 40 financial ecosystem participants, and a review of recent global reports.
