Strengthening Policy and Institutions

Reducing Barriers and Risks for Investors by Strengthening Policy Frameworks for Sustainable Investments 

Strengthening Policies and Institutions is crucial for reducing barriers and risks for investors. UNDP works with governments and institutions to create robust policy frameworks that support sustainable investments. 

Working globally, regionally, and nationally, our services include: 

• Building an Enabling Investment Environment: Facilitating collaboration among public and private sector stakeholders to create conducive conditions for SDG-aligned investments.
• Policy Advocacy and Reform: Advocating for policy reforms that create a favourable environment for sustainable investments, addressing regulatory barriers, and promoting investor-friendly policies.
• Institutional Capacity Building: Strengthening the capacity of institutions to support and regulate sustainable investments, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge needed to facilitate SDG-aligned investments.
• Risk Mitigation Strategies: Developing and promoting risk mitigation strategies that reduce the perceived risks associated with sustainable investments, making them more attractive to private investors.

Strengthening Policies and Institutions addresses issues such as policy barriers, regulatory reforms, and capacity building, and facilitates integration with broader sustainable finance initiatives.
