Green Inclusive Finance: A Framework for Understanding How Financial Services Can Help Low-Income and Vulnerable People Respond to Climate Change

This holistic framework created by the Center for Financial Inclusion (CFI) can help you understand how financial products and services can support vulnerable populations manage and adapt to climate change impacts. It offers banks, microfinance institutions, insurers, payment providers, and other financial service providers four impact pathways: mitigation, resilience, adaptation, and transition. For each pathway, it explains the role inclusive financial services can play and provides examples of the solutions they can offer. This resource intends to develop a shared understanding of inclusive finance’s role in adapting to climate change, and will be most useful to finance and sustainability professionals working in the financial services sector, as well as investors and funders.
