The challenge for Governments to achieve sustainable economic growth that can withstand Climate Shocks is very significant and complex. We are here to support them in Overcoming Systemic Barriers to Investment. LMICs often struggle to attract the finance (and IFIs to disperse the funds) needed for their development, due to a set of interconnected, “wicked” problems:
1 Government Fragmentation: A lack of coherence between ministries stalls progress, particularly the early involvement of the Ministry of Finance in sectoral planning.
2 Uncoordinated Support: Fragmented technical assistance from various partners can often undermine national strategy.
3 A Weak Project Pipeline: These factors result in too few bankable, investment-ready projects for financiers to support.
4 A Local Knowledge Gap: National universities often lack the incentives and capacity to conduct policy-relevant research or to produce graduates with the skills to fill critical institutional roles, perpetuating a cycle of dependency on external expertise.
From Dependency to Self Determination
Countries are in different phases of creating their plans: from building Data-to-Deal pipelines for projects and policies, to strengthening science–policy interfaces or creating enabling ecosystems.
Depending on the need, CCG is happy to provide the following offers:
(1) the full Data-to-Deal pipeline,
(2) strengthening core policies (NDCs, LTS, IRP/IEP/IDP) with a finance ministry interface;
(3) bridging policy to finance by aligning line and finance ministries with IFIs to build investable pipelines;
(4) targeted capacity building via “Lite” or
(5) multi-tool Bootcamps;
(6) institutional embedding through “FlatPack” universities and (7) Country Networks;
(8) bespoke research on “wicked problems”.
They are designed to develop and translate plans into updated policy and financed projects – using open models, curated data, capacity building, stakeholder engagement, and long-term knowledge management – with a track record in mobilising concessional finance (eg Costa Rica, Chile, Dominican Republic, Uruguay).
