1 GEF's Intervention Models for Private Sector Engagement

2 We start by noting the three different types of private sector actors with whom GEF can engage Type Description/Examples Capital providers Pension funds, VCs Financial intermediaries and facilitators advisory Investment banks, commercial banks, financial services a Industry players large corporations Large retail, manufacturing companies, project developers, etc. b Industry players SMEs Full time staff below 50 or less depending on the country c Industry players Small start-ups with full time staff below 0 individuals/

3 In our view, three different types of private sector actors form a complex eco-system, interacting with consumers and the global environment Public Policy Multinational to Subnational PRELIMINARY FOR DISCUSSION Capital providers Financial intermediaries and facilitators Industry players Large corporations SMEs Individuals/ Global environmental commons Consumers NGOs, CSOs, think tanks

4 In this eco-system, GEF regularly uses four different intervention models Type Description Enabling policy environments Policy and regulatory development (e.g. feed-in tariffs for renewable energy, regulatory incentives that guarantee markets for new sustainability innovations and encourage business to make long-term investments) Consistency and standardization Incremental financing (Concessional / risk reduction Loans, equity, and performance based funding/guarantees (e.g. co-investing in research for more environmental and costeffective products and/or processes?) Risk-sharing facilities Policy risk insurance Structured financing Corporate alliances Collaborative goal setting for transformational targets (e.g. 80% and interventions cocoa certified sustainable by 00) Certification and supply chain management (e.g. Forest Stewardship Council, Marine Stewardship Council) MRV and risk- valuation methodologies (Risk reduction tools?) 4 Capacity building Advisory services (e.g. for SMEs) and incubation Technical assistance and innovation? (e.g. R& D to co-develop products/services?) Aggregation Information and communications technology applications

5 With these four intervention models, GEF can fine-tune its approach and partnerships to achieve targeted results Enabling public policy environments Multinational to Subnational PRELIMINARY FOR DISCUSSION Incremental financing Capital providers Corporate alliances and interventions Financial intermediaries and facilitators Industry players Large corporations SMEs Individuals/ 4 Capacity building and incubation Global environmental commons Consumers NGOs, CSOs, think tanks 4
