Climate Fund Managers Joins Climate Bonds Network To Scale Emerging Market Climate Finance

• Climate Fund Managers brings $2.8B AUM and targets an additional $4B for climate investments across emerging markets• Partnership with Climate Bonds Initiative and European Commission aims to unlock institutional fixed-income capital• Focus spans renewable energy, green hydrogen, water, waste, and sustainable cities across Africa, Asia, and Latin America

Climate Fund Managers has joined the Climate Bonds Initiative’s Network Membership, strengthening efforts to channel institutional capital into climate projects across emerging markets, where financing gaps remain most acute.

The move connects one of the most active blended finance managers in developing economies with a global standard-setting body in sustainable debt markets. Together, they aim to accelerate capital flows into climate mitigation and adaptation projects by making emerging market investments more accessible to pension funds and insurers.

Bridging Institutional Capital And Emerging Market Demand

Climate Fund Managers operates across Africa, Asia, and Latin America, deploying blended finance structures that combine public and private capital to reduce risk and attract institutional investors. With over $2.8 billion in assets under management and a target to raise an additional $4 billion, the firm is positioning itself as a key intermediary between global capital markets and climate infrastructure demand.

Its investment platforms span renewable energy, energy transition technologies such as green hydrogen, water and waste systems, maritime infrastructure, and sustainable urban development. The firm currently supports 50 active projects through its Climate Investor One, Two, and Three funds, and has expanded into private credit through the GAIA Climate Loan Fund.

This expansion into credit reflects a broader shift among climate investors seeking diversified financing tools beyond equity to scale deployment and improve capital efficiency.

Climate Bonds Network Expands Market Infrastructure

By joining the Climate Bonds Network, Climate Fund Managers becomes part of a global coalition of more than 85 institutions, including banks, regulators, and asset managers working to standardise and grow the sustainable finance market.

Membership provides access to technical research, market intelligence, and policy forums that influence green bond standards and taxonomies. It also includes training across green, social, sustainability, and sustainability-linked bonds, alongside transition finance and adaptation strategies.

These capabilities are increasingly important as investors navigate fragmented regulatory environments and rising scrutiny around climate disclosures and impact credibility.

Blended Finance As A Risk Mitigation Tool

At the centre of the partnership is a shared focus on blended finance as a mechanism to unlock institutional capital. By combining concessional and commercial funding, these structures help reduce perceived risk in markets often viewed as complex or underdeveloped.

Sean Kidney, CEO, Climate Bonds Initiative, said:“70% of the climate investments we need to make will be in emerging markets. Climate Fund Managers, with its innovative blended finance risk management, is making Africa and South Asia investible for the world’s pension and insurance funds. We love their work!”

Sean Kidney, CEO, Climate Bonds Initiative

The statement reflects a growing consensus that the global energy transition will be shaped by capital flows into developing economies rather than mature markets alone.

Scaling Access To Fixed-Income Investors

For Climate Fund Managers, the partnership is also about broadening access to fixed-income investors, a segment that remains underutilised in climate finance relative to its scale.

Andrew Johnstone, CEO, Climate Fund Managers, said:“There is clear and growing institutional appetite to allocate capital to climate action. By working with the Climate Bonds Initiative and the European Commission, we aim to enable global fixed-income investors to access blended finance vehicles supporting climate mitigation and adaptation at scale in emerging markets, where financing gaps remain most acute.”

Andrew Johnstone, CEO, Climate Fund Managers

This alignment with the European Commission adds a governance layer, reinforcing the role of public institutions in shaping investment pipelines and de-risking frameworks.

What This Means For Global Climate Finance

The collaboration highlights a structural shift in climate finance, where success increasingly depends on integrating public policy, private capital, and financial innovation.

For executives and investors, the takeaway is practical. Access to credible pipelines in emerging markets is improving, but requires new investment models that balance risk and return. Participation in networks such as Climate Bonds is also becoming a strategic lever for shaping standards and accessing opportunities early.

As climate targets tighten and capital requirements accelerate, partnerships that connect institutional investors to scalable, risk-adjusted projects in developing economies will define the next phase of the global transition.
