Bankability of carbon projects with Gerrit Held from ADB
Notas do episódio
Nature restoration has a financing problem, not just an environmental one. In this conversation, ADB climate finance specialist Gerrit Held explains why the future of nature-based solutions may depend on a very different playbook: public-private partnerships, concessional capital, and projects that are commercially sound, not just high-integrity on paper.
From ADB’s role as a multilateral development bank to the practical realities of turning forests, mangroves, grasslands, and blue carbon sites into investable opportunities, this episode reveals how the bank is helping governments structure nature projects that private capital might actually back.
