Learn more about the GGG Guarantee Directory

A green guarantee is a financial instrument that protects investors or lenders against specific risks in a climate-related project. By transferring part of the risk to a third party, such as a development bank or private guarantor, it helps unlock sustainable investment, such as for climate adaptation and mitigation projects that may otherwise be considered too risky.

The platform is design for:

• Project developers seeking guarantees to de-risk green investments
• Public and local financial institutions designing green lending schemes
• Governments and development agencies exploring co-financing or policy tools
• Private investors looking for risk mitigation to enter new markets
• Guarantee providers wishing to showcase their instruments.

Featuring your guarantee in the directory enhances its visibility to a global audience of investors, financial institutions and development partners seeking de-risking instruments for climate-aligned initiatives.
