Green Gateway – Greening Financial Systems Technical Assistance Programme

GFS Programme is to promote net zero and climate-resilient financial systems that ultimately will support the private sector in deploying climate-related and environmentally sustainable investments. This will be done by providing capacity building and support to central banks and supervisors introducing best lending practices related to green financing in terms of procedures, processes, and products available to financial intermediaries. The Programme will pursue the following four objectives:​

- Promote an enabling financial sector environment conducive to unlocking climate action and green investments .​

- Support central banks, supervisors, and financial institutions in assessing and addressing climate risk and mainstream related risk management.​

- Build the necessary capacity in central banks/supervisors to take action to support a transition to a net zero ​.

- Support financial institutions by introducing best financing practices, especially for lending and other debt instruments, related to climate action and green financing in terms of procedures, processes, and products. ​
