  • The Uganda Development Bank (UDB) has designed a Currency Risk-Sharing Facility (CRSF) to scale up local-currency climate lending through its Climate Finance Facility (CFF). Developed via the FiCS Innovation Lab with technical support from the Climate Policy Initiative, the University of Leeds, and City St. George’s University of London, the CRSF aims to reduce foreign exchange (FX) exposure for UDB when borrowing in hard currencies (USD/EUR) and on-lending in Ugandan shillings (UGX). The instrument employs a layered risk-sharing approach, combining partial hedging with a tail-risk FX guarantee to protect against severe UGX depreciation while remaining more affordable than full hedging.
