As public resources face growing pressure, understanding not just climate finance flows but also how well they are delivered—is critical. This report offers a framework for assessing the quality of public climate finance, with clear pathways to deliver sustained, transformational change at the project, market, and system levels in EMDEs and beyond.

Guarantees are among the most effective tools to mobilize private capital for climate action but remain underused. This report by the Green Guarantee Group offers clear, practical recommendations to scale their deployment where they are needed most.
