How We Work

We aim to strengthen the financial system from end to end, by working in four core areas: Adaptation & Resilience, Early-Stage Finance, Financial Markets, and Investments.

Centres of Expertise

Our cross-cutting Centres of Expertise help to drive delivery and thought leadership in areas of the green economy where our interventions can have the greatest impact.

Carbon Markets

We help to develop carbon markets in Africa by strengthening policies, building infrastructure, and increasing the capacity of financial stakeholders to invest in carbon projects.

Nature

We boost investment in Africa’s natural environment by co-developing investable projects, creating measurement frameworks, and convening partners to drive action on biodiversity and natural capital.

Gender

We promote gender equality to boost the sustainable development of the continent as a whole, by advancing women’s leadership in the financial sector and channelling capital to women-led businesses.
