BwB will be at COP16 in Riyadh next week.
Chris Smith, Managing Director and Global Head of Sustainable Sovereign Finance, will moderate a panel discussion on impact investment and scaling up private sector investment into drought resilience and land restoration initiatives.
“Improving drought resilience is a critical aspect of adapting to climate change. But it is too often left to the public sector alone to tackle, despite despite research showing that investment in resilience yields a 3x return in benefits from avoided losses, increased productivity and environmental co-benefits," commented Chris. "We are keen to further explore this area, including by collaborating with partners and stakeholders on thinking more creatively about innovative financial instruments that could scale up private investment into drought resilience initiatives.”
