  1. The repository lists financing providers, programs, market instruments, eligibility criteria and application pathways.
  2. For fund selectors and allocators, the repository moves early diligence on an emerging-market deal to a comparison of co-funders, guarantors and structures instead of individual development banks or funds.
  3. The Green Climate Fund, a member of the first cohort, had $3.3 billion in 2026 approvals, as ESG Capital Daily previously reported.

The Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero on Wednesday launched a public repository at COP31, with more than 30 members, to help institutions finance clean energy, resilience and adaptation in emerging markets.

The repository lists financing providers, programs, market instruments, eligibility criteria and application pathways. GFANZ said it drew on input from multilateral development banks, development finance institutions, banks, fund managers and other private investors.

For fund selectors and allocators, the repository moves early diligence on an emerging-market deal to a comparison of co-funders, guarantors and structures instead of individual development banks or funds. GFANZ said the tool cuts search and transaction costs for arranging blended finance or accessing a guarantee.

The Green Climate Fund, a member of the first cohort, had $3.3 billion in 2026 approvals, as ESG Capital Daily previously reported. The cohort spans North America, Europe, Africa and Asia and includes development banks, financial institutions and philanthropic investors such as Allied Climate Partners and Climate Investment Funds.
