🌏♻️ We're proud to announce the successful launch of Catalyze Climate, a first-of-a-kind Climate Finance Lab that aims to accelerate global #decarbonization and strengthen #climate resilience last week in #Singapore. 💡The theme of the event was around “Bridging the Financing Gap: A Systems Investing Approach for Emerging Climate Infrastructure Advancement.” ⚡We are grateful to our speakers, presenters, and moderator: - Anisa Keeratiworanan, Director - Private Equity, Fullerton Fund Management - Vivek Pathak, Regional Chief Risk Officer, IFC - International Finance Corporation - Assyl Ikhsan, Executive Director - Transition Finance, Standard Chartered Bank - Jing (Jane) Ge, Managing Partner, Vectors Capital - Jugnu Pati, Investment Specialist - Fund Manager, Asian Development Bank (ADB) Ventures - David H. Lim, Associate Director - Sustainable Finance, AVPN Executed by the team at Catalyze Climate: Pavina Adunratanasee Naman Lahoti Wanwipa Siriwatwechakul The paneldiscussion highlighted the importance of patient capital and long-term commitment from investors, given the often extended timelines associated with developing and #scaling #climatetech. Some of the key takeaways include: 1️⃣Unlocking market demand industrial decarbonization: - Addressing the downstream impact of carbon tax regulations such as Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) on hard-to-abate sector suppliers in #Asia. - #Industrial incumbents and #strategics were identified as a critical stakeholder in unlocking demand by signing #offtakes with tech suppliers, as wider deployment of tech can drive down costs through iteration and learning curves. 2️⃣ The role of traditional investors and allocators in unlocking catalytic funding for First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) assets according in a systems investment ecosystem: - Various financing buckets for FOAK projects were identified including the strategic use of public and philanthropic funds in #blendedfinance can have a significant multiplier effect in crowding in catalytic private capital. - Each layer of funding can help unlock the next, with credibility from philanthropic/catalytic funders or government backing helping to de-risk projects enough to unlock #projectfinance. 3️⃣De-risking emerging climate infrastructure and improving bankability of projects to enable their transition into the mainstream market: - New deal structures are emerging to mitigate risk for #buyers, such as "risk sharing" where a pool of off takers commit to a pool of climate technologies. - Carbon markets are a critical mechanism in facilitating #decarbonization financing in the region and several lessons that can be applied from the #EU Emissions Trading Scheme. 🚀We’d like to thank our event partners for their incredible support Vectors Capital, Asia Investor Group on Climate Change (AIGCC), AVPN and SMU Institute of Innovation & Entrepreneurship.
