CIF Capital Markets Mechanism

In a world first for a multilateral climate fund, the Climate Investment Funds (CIF) will raise investment capital directly from international capital markets through the CIF Capital Markets Mechanism (CCMM). This pioneering initiative aims to unlock billions of dollars in private sector capital to accelerate the scaling of clean energy and sustainable infrastructure in emerging economies. CCMM sees the Clean Technology Fund (CTF), issue fixed-income securities to provide vital funding for such early-stage investments.

Why CCMM

We are on the edge of a global precipice. Every day we face weather shocks, rising sea levels, and skyrocketing temperatures. We must transform our economies and societies now for both people and the planet.

The scale of finance we need is massive and public finance alone does not suffice. To keep global temperatures to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels by 2050, as envisaged by the Paris Agreement, we must mobilize six times our current funds, according to the non-profit Climate Policy Initiative. That’s about $8.5 to $10 trillion annually.

To act at the pace and scale required, key sources of finance like CTF must be rapidly scaled up. Early and accelerated investment now will make all the difference. CCMM is designed to deliver this scale.

Accelerating Clean Energy Transitions

CCMM will advance funding for programmatic investments in broad-based energy-system transformation. This means investments in renewable energy generation and integration, battery storage, coal transition, industry decarbonization and clean technology supply chains.

Blazing a Trail

CCMM exemplifies CIF’s role as the world’s most pioneering climate fund. It has the potential to transform the climate finance landscape, unlocking private capital and paving the way for other multilateral funds to follow suit.

A Steady Source of Funding

CCMM will enable a fundamental shift, unlocking an independent funding stream that is less vulnerable to policy shifts and can provide a catalyst for private sector investment in challenging economic circumstances.

How CCMM Works

By accessing international capital markets, CCMM enables the "front-loading" of benefits from the CTF loan portfolio and other investments, allowing new climate finance to be swiftly unlocked at scale, without having to wait for long-term reflows in the future.

CTF loans have a tenor of up to 40 years with a repayment moratorium of up to 10 years. To free up funds for investment now, CCMM will issue bonds secured against these loans, making finance available sooner rather than waiting for the long-term reflows.

The World Bank is Trustee and Treasury Manager, overseeing bond issuances, liquidity management, financial risk management, credit rating management, and financial reporting.

HOW CCMM WORKS

THE CLEAN TECHNOLOGY FUND’S IMPACT

The Clean Technology Fund (CTF) enables clean energy transformation in developing countries. It provides resources to scale up low-carbon technologies with significant potential for long-term greenhouse gas emissions savings. The fund supports a wide array of clean technologies across different areas, including renewable energy, energy efficiency (of buildings, agriculture, and industry), and clean transport.
