Develop sustainable finance initiatives.

The global wealth of US$430 trillion is not going where it is most needed under the current financial system. The current small, separate sustainable finance initiatives will not deliver the change at scale needed.

The answer: an architecture for sustainable finance based on the SDGs

The world needs an economic governance architecture deliberately designed to support governments, development agencies, civil society and the private sector to make decisions that prioritize investment in the SDGs.

UNDP’s strengths: UNDP is uniquely positioned to realize a sustainable finance architecture by working with multiple partners through:

Mobilizing financial expertise to sustainable development

Bringing sustainable development expertise to the private sector

Providing access to private financial investors 

Designing instruments for the delivery of vertical funds and innovative instruments

Building a sustainable finance architecture at the country level

Facilitating South-South exchanges and horizontal knowledge-sharing on sustainable finance practices
