Chris Botsford, Co-founding Partner at ADM Capital, participated in a virtual panel discussion alongside The Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action on 20 January 2021.

Vivek Pathak, recently appointed the Global Head of Climate Business at IFC after serving as the IFC Regional Director for East Asia and the Pacific since October 2014, chaired an expert panel in a discussion on how governments around the world can pursue more decisive action to combat climate change and accelerate the transition towards low carbon development through fiscal policy and the use of public finance.

Private sector representatives shared thoughts on the policy changes required to enhance green investment and increase the financing of climate change adaption and mitigation among private market participants.

ABOUT THE COALITION

The Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action brings together fiscal and economic policymakers from over 50 countries in leading the global climate response and in securing a just transition towards low-carbon resilient development.

Finance Ministers hold the keys to accelerating climate action. They know most clearly the risks posed by climate change and recognize how taking action could unlock trillions in investments and create millions of jobs through 2030.
