New regional network will support engagement with financial institutions and policymakers across Latin America and the Caribbean to capitalize on the net-zero transition opportunity for the region
Today, during the United Nations Latin America and Caribbean Climate Week, the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), the world’s largest coalition of financial institutions committed to the goal of net zero by 2050, announced the formation of its Latin America & Caribbean Network and the creation of a senior Advisory Board to drive net-zero progress in the region.
Michael R. Bloomberg, GFANZ Co-Chair and UN Special Envoy for Climate Ambition and Solutions: “Helping more financial institutions create feasible plans for reaching their net-zero commitments is a critical next step in the global fight against climate change. The launch of GFANZ’s Latin America & Caribbean Network will accelerate that work in a part of the world with vast renewable energy potential. Together with local partners, we can mobilize even more capital for clean energy projects across this important region.”
