Development Finance Institutions: the future for development funding

July 18, 2017

The Paris Agreement on Climate Change and the United Nations’ new Sustainable Development Goals have emphasised the importance of making finance available for climate change development projects in low- and middle-income countries. Annual commitments by development finance institutions have grown from $10 billion in 2004 to $70 billion a decade later, and their links with the private sector have brought in further financing.
