The achievement of Ecuador’s NDC targets requires a substantial increase in the volume of public and private, national and international climate finance invested in the country.
As a result, the Government of Ecuador, under the leadership of National Popular Finance Corporation (CONAFIPS), has embarked on an ambitious effort to design nature-related financial instruments. This includes developing a bioeconomy/biodiversity taxonomy, frameworks for mitigating nature-related financial risks, methodologies for nature-related data collection and disclosure, and financial instruments specific to bioeconomy/biodiversity.
