FINANCE FRAMEWORK Introductory Summary

Purpose Share the current challenges that countries have identified in the context of resource mobilization Present initial options for mobilizing LEDS and a diagnostic tool to support countries with navigating such challenges Suggest key approaches that can be undertaken over time to mobilize finance for LEDS actions Provide a foundation for further dialogue

Audience and Intent Primary audience: practitioners supporting LEDS, both those who are early and later in the process Based on a synthesis of lessons learned and expertise from a variety of programs, services, and research efforts A living document that will be reviewed and updated semi-annually or annually; First phase completed in Oct 2014; Second phase next year. Intended as a guide only and should be applied and adapted based on the country context, priorities, and implementation phase Contributors thus far: GGBP, E3G, ODI, LEDS GP. Seeking additional authors!

Overarching Challenges 1. National inconsistences in public finance with incentives and instruments at times negating efforts to advance LEDS 1. Gaps in capabilities of the domestic financial sector, impacting their ability to participate with the public sector in financing LEDS 1. Fragmented and poorly coordinated international cooperation efforts Have you encountered other high-level challenges not recorded here?

Public Sector Role Government leadership of the “homework” effort, can include identifying: 1) National priorities 2) Specific resources needs 3) Analysis of barriers to mobilize private investment and strategies to overcome risks and create increased rates of return 4) Domestic capacity to finance its plans 5) The role required from international development partners

Public Sector Role INCREASING IMMEDIATE AND LONG-TERM INVESTMENT ENABLING POLICY FRAMEWORK Regulations, standards, clear price signals GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Grants, guarantees, concessional loans PUBLIC BUDGET SUPPORT Procurement, public-private partnerships, Budget allocation MOBILIZED LEDS WITH REDUCED EMISSIONS AND ENHANCED CLIMATE RESILIENCE LEDS POLICIES, PROGRAMS, and PROJECTS Climate change strategies, green growth strategies, sectoral initiatives, low emission and /or climate resilient technology oriented policies

Private Sector Role Support the LEDS planning phase by contributing to stakeholder consultations in which governments seek to better understand the current barriers that could impede investment in LEDS technologies. And of course, create new businesses, invest and finance! Private Sector Informed Approach to Implementing LEDS Identification of risks Policy actions Challenges to policy uptake What other key actions can the private sector support?

International Development and Finance Communities’ Roles Technical assistance Capacity building Knowledge sharing

Applying the Framework How can this framework be applied? Would there be value in further developing regional case studies? Is it helpful to have a common slide deck on the finance framework and make it available to structure future training? Would there be value to countries in the LEDS GP and regional platforms supporting a matchmaking role between countries and finance/funding and finance technical assistance providers?
