Article 9 fund
The Green for Growth Fund aims to mitigate climate change and promote sustainable economic growth by investing in reducing energy use and CO2 emissions and improving resource efficiency. A blended finance structure, the fund leverages risk-capital provided by public institutions with additional private capital to increase investments across Southeast Europe, the Eastern Neighborhood Region, the Middle East, and North Africa.
The fund provides green private debt to financial intermediaries that on-lend to enterprises and private households. It also invests directly in renewable energy projects and corporates.
