Mexico faces a difficult set of economic challenges. Within this context, the Mexican government is focused on its fiscal balance, which requires increasing the impact of limited public resources. This calls for a strategic approach to leverage private sector investment in economically sustainable projects. At the same time, as a country highly vulnerable to climate impacts, Mexico must also deliver its ambitious emission reduction, clean energy targets, and adaptation plans.
The Briefing Paper Accelerating Green Infrastructure Financing in Mexico: Towards Sustainable Economic Growth looks at the rationale for a new approach and the case for a green investment strategy. It analyzes how Mexico can bridge the gap towards new approaches to public-private risk sharing to secure the investment needed to deliver a low carbon and climate resilient economy.
