Nacional de instituciones financieras de desarrollo: Crítica aliados de acción por el clima por Qué y cómo pueden ser más involucrados en las finanzas del clima?

National development finance institutions (NDFIs) can play a vital role in promoting climate
financing and thus achieving Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) due to their
knowledge of local markets, their close connections to domestic public and private
stakeholders and their ability for local currency financing. However, currently NDFIs are not
involved as intensively in this field as they could be.

El incremento de la Alineación de las Finanzas Mundiales con la Naturaleza

The global economy must
deliver nature-positive, equitable
outcomes if we are to tackle
the existential challenges of
nature loss and climate change.
As nature is not material in most
financial decision-making, there
is significant misalignment of
public and private financial flows
with nature-positive outcomes.
Understanding the current
degree of alignment of global
finance, and identifying actions
needed to increase it is vital.

Greenflation: El costo de la transición verde en pequeñas economías abiertas

We propose a new model of a small open economy with efficient energy use to investigate the inflationary dynamics along
the green transition. The model incorporates the production of
green energy that substitutes exogenous brown energy sources
in energy production. Production is characterized by low substitutability between resource and traditional inputs that firms
can alter through directed input-saving technical change.

La Economía Política de los Tugurios de Crecimiento: Evidencia de Brasil

This paper provides evidence from
Brazil that local government actions can increase slum growth
without changes in poverty or immigration. Using a regression discontinuity design in close elections, I find that victories
by a center-left, pro-poor party in the 2000 municipal election
strongly increased the share of households living in slums in
2010 compared to 2000.

Los Préstamos de consumo, la heterogeneidad de las Tasas de Interés, y la Desigualdad

Using the Brazilian administrative credit registry data with the universe of all
consumer loans originated by banks in the country from 2013 to 2019, we document
high borrowing interest rates, which vary systematically with individual’s
characteristics. In particular, even after controlling for several observable
individual attributes (such as income, occupation, and default probabilities,
low-income), individuals pay higher interest rates than high-income borrowers.

LA ADAPTACIÓN A LOS DESASTRES NATURALES EN ÁFRICA

El sector privado tiene un papel indispensable que desempeñar en la promoción de la adaptación al cambio climático y la construcción de la resiliencia. La necesidad de que las soluciones del sector privado para abordar los impactos del cambio climático es aún más pronunciada en África, dada su considerable de las necesidades para la adaptación y el limitado espacio fiscal de la mayoría de los estados Africanos para adaptarse y aumentar la resiliencia al clima y a los riesgos de desastres.
