Book excerpt: This report explains why strengthening the governance around public investment management is central to cutting inefficiencies and unblocking the climate finance needed to narrow Asia and the Pacific’s gaping infrastructure gap. Outlining how adaptation and mitigation should be woven into more inclusive investment planning, it explains why private investment should be combined with public resources to better tackle the climate and investment shortfall. It shows why a stronger understanding of climate data and risk analysis can help drive transparent and accountable climate-responsive investment in order to finance a solid pipeline of resilient infrastructure projects.

Book excerpt: Countries have committed, through the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), to pursue climate targets and policies that would limit global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels. A shift toward green public investment will help to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In addition, substantial public investment will be necessary to build public infrastructure that makes economies more resilient to climate change and related natural disasters. Climate change mitigation and adaptation challenges thus compound preexisting needs for public investment to foster the economic recovery from the pandemic and to meet the SDGs in a broader range of areas, often in a context of limited fiscal space. Against this backdrop, a priority for all countries is to manage their public investment efficiently and effectively. To help countries improve the institutions and processes for infrastructure governance (the planning, allocation, and implementation of public investment), the IMF developed in 2015 the Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA), which has already been applied in over 70 countries. However, the current PIMA does not provide a sufficiently tailored assessment of how public investment management can support climate change mitigation and adaptation. To fill this gap, this paper introduces a new module to the to the current Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) framework, the “Climate-PIMA” (C-PIMA), whose goal is to help governments identify potential improvements in public investment institutions and processes to build low-carbon and climate-resilient infrastructure.

Book excerpt: This Technical Report discusses the results of applying the climate-focused module of the Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) to the United Kingdom (UK) in October 2021. The UK has some of the most ambitious climate mitigation targets in the world, requiring a strong role for public investment. The Climate-PIMA found that the UK has a relatively well-designed system to manage climate relevant public investment, but there is room to strengthen its institutional design and improve effectiveness. The application of the PIMA is covered in a separate companion report.

Book excerpt: Drawing on the Fund’s analytical and capacity development work, including Public Investment Management Assessments (PIMAs) carried out in more than 60 countries, the new book Well Spent: How Strong Infrastructure Governance Can End Waste in Public Investment will address how countries can attain quality infrastructure outcomes through better infrastructure governance—an issue becoming increasingly important in the context of the Great Lockdown and its economic consequences. It covers critical issues such as infrastructure investment and Sustainable Development Goals, controlling corruption, managing fiscal risks, integrating planning and budgeting, and identifying best practices in project appraisal and selection. It also covers emerging areas in infrastructure governance, such as maintaining and managing public infrastructure assets and building resilience against climate change.

Book excerpt: This technical report discusses the findings and recommendations of the Climate Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) of Cabo Verde (CPV) undertaken in March 2023. Progress has been made in the development of a comprehensive climate change policy framework, spatial planning, coordination with municipalities and in planning for disaster risk financing. But coordination across the central government is weak with no institution positioned strategically to lead either adaptation or mitigation related investments. The regulatory and oversight framework for public enterprise (PEs) does not promote consistency between their climate-related investments and national climate policies while PEs are the main driver of public investment in Cabo Verde. The Public-Private Partnership (PPP) framework does not define how climate risks are allocated between the government and PPP partners, while the use of PPP is increasing. Investment project appraisal and selection practices do not exist. Climate-responsive spending in infrastructure is at a concept development stage but gender budgeting is a well-recognised practice. Ex post reviews or external audits of projects on climate outcomes are not conducted and climate impact is not integrated into public asset management. On these grounds, this report makes seven high-priority recommendations which could improve climate-related public investment management in Cabo Verde and support green and sustainable economic growth. In addition, the C-PIMA report informed the design of the reform measures for a recently approved Arrangement Under the Resilience and Sustainability Facility.

Book excerpt: Kosovo is rightly working to improve its public investment management to support future economic growth and improvements in wellbeing. This assessment applies the IMF Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) framework, including the Climate-PIMA module. It finds that there have been improvements in Kosovo’s public investment management institutions since the original 2015 PIMA assessment—but the design of these institutions is stronger than their effectiveness in practice. Continued reforms are needed to strengthen the project appraisal process, improve the pace of project implementation, and increase central support for major projects. Like most other countries, Kosovo is at an early stage of incorporating climate aspects into public investment management. Strengthening the alignment between climate goals and sectoral infrastructure planning and delivery will be needed to ensure that infrastructure investments are resilient and assist Kosovo in meeting is climate objectives.

Book excerpt: The Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) for Seychelles shows a relatively well-designed public investment management system, with well-unified budgeting arrangements and effective funding processes for capital projects. However, the assessment also notes under-execution of capital budgets and identifies important areas for improvement in medium-term budgeting, project planning, and asset management. The Climate Public Investment Management Assessment (C-PIMA) provides a climate perspective on public investment management in Seychelles. This module identifies proactive climate-related public investment coordination but gaps in the incorporation of climate resilience measures within the investment framework. Recommended reforms are geared towards enhancing project appraisal, defining roles in the public investment system, and integrating climate change adaptation into the planning process. These reforms, aligned with Seychelles' National Development Strategy, aim to optimize public investment management and ensure sustainable development in the face of climate-related challenges.

Book excerpt: We propose a macroeconomic model to assess optimal public policy decisions in the the face of competing funding demands for climate change action versus traditional welfare-enhancing capital investment. How to properly delineate the costs and benefits of traditional versus adaption-focused development remains an open question. The paper places particular emphasis on the changing level of risk and vulnerabilities faced by developing countries as they allocate investment toward growth strategies, adapting to climate change and emissions mitigation.

This book was released on 2020-09-09 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication serves as a roadmap for exploring and managing climate risk in the U.S. financial system. It is the first major climate publication by a U.S. financial regulator. The central message is that U.S. financial regulators must recognize that climate change poses serious emerging risks to the U.S. financial system, and they should move urgently and decisively to measure, understand, and address these risks. Achieving this goal calls for strengthening regulators’ capabilities, expertise, and data and tools to better monitor, analyze, and quantify climate risks. It calls for working closely with the private sector to ensure that financial institutions and market participants do the same. And it calls for policy and regulatory choices that are flexible, open-ended, and adaptable to new information about climate change and its risks, based on close and iterative dialogue with the private sector. At the same time, the financial community should not simply be reactive—it should provide solutions. Regulators should recognize that the financial system can itself be a catalyst for investments that accelerate economic resilience and the transition to a net-zero emissions economy. Financial innovations, in the form of new financial products, services, and technologies, can help the U.S. economy better manage climate risk and help channel more capital into technologies essential for the transition. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5247742
