We appraise and structure climate-smart investments including project-level investments and financial mechanisms (e.g. funds and facilities such as green investment banks) that mobilize private investment for mitigation and adaptation. Our core competencies include performing due diligence for climate-related impact investments and designing blended finance solutions.
