More than 90 percent of AFI members surveyed indicated they are planning or already taking steps to address the impacts of climate change in their countries.

Inclusive green finance is a new and evolving policy area in which AFI member institutions are beginning to devise and implement policies, regulations and national strategies to mitigate or build resilience to the sweeping environmental, health, social and economic effects of climate change. There is still much to learn, but policymakers and regulators are finding there is often no need to reinvent the wheel. The report outlines:

• how financial inclusion builds resilience to climate change
• why central banks and financial regulators play a critical role in National Climate Policy Development
• the 4P Framework of Inclusive Green Finance: Provision, Promotion, Protection and Prevention
