Project Name | Green Guarantee Company ("GGC") |
Project Detail | The Green Guarantee Company (GGC) is the first ever global institution dedicated to providing guarantees for climate bonds with significant climate adaptation and mitigation impacts. It will create an ecosystem around climate bonds for developing countries by connecting local issuers with international investors and creating working groups in the countries where it operates. This represents an opportunity to mobilise large funds from global investors by using guarantees to increase developing countries’ issuance of climate bonds and loans with significant climate impacts. This programme addresses the problem of inadequate climate financing from developed countries to developing countries by de-risking international private sector investments in mitigation and adaptation projects. GGC will be a powerful ally for developing countries by giving them access to international capital markets through its business model. GCF will serve as the founding equity shareholder in this first-of-its-kind institution by providing early stage and patient capital to incentivise participation from more private and institutional commercial investors. GCF will invest USD 40.5 million as the first tranche with subsequent investments up to an aggregate amount of USD 82.5 million as GGC scales up. |
