Strengthening Ecuador's sustainable finance governance mechanism

Led by: Global Green Growth Institute
 Implementation period: August 2025 - July 2026
 Sector: Green Finance
 

The project aims to accelerate emissions reductions while strengthening the core governance mechanism for sustainable finance management that contributes to poverty eradication and climate-resilient economic growth. This will be achieved by strengthening the Ecuador's Sustainable Finance Roundtable (SFR), a multi-stakeholder coordination mechanism. 

The project also seeks to build institutional capacity, deliver targeted training for SFR members, equipping key actors with technical expertise in sustainable finance, climate risk integration, and environmental and social safeguards. It will also co-design and implement a comprehensive governance mechanism for the SFR, in coordination with counterparts, as well as assess green investment opportunities within the government’s annual investment plan (PAI) for resource mobilisation.

Besides, it will support the implementation of Ecuador’s National Green Taxonomy Roadmap, and producing technical reports to monitor alignment with international standards and national policy objectives.
