"CMIA has been instrumental over the last decade in promoting the voices of the finance and investment community with climate policymakers, especially in Europe. Without CMIA’s persistent and expert advocacy, a key constituency would have been missing from the table."
Richard Folland, Managing Director, Climate & Energy Associates
Vision
To achieve rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions leading to global net zero emissions by 2050, while ensuring climate-resilient development.
Mission
To stimulate a shift in the direction and scale of private and public financial flows to meet the Paris Agreement objectives. CMIA and its members do this not only by developing the necessary investment opportunities but also by helping to establish the enabling environments needed to increase deal flow to the scale required. We recognise that this shift will only happen alongside broader efforts to achieve sustainable economic growth in line with the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
How we work
CMIA holds Active Private Sector Observer (APSO) status at the World Bank’s Climate Investment Funds and at the Green Climate Fund. CMIA facilitates private sector input to these funds via working groups.
