We believe in a greener future made possible by finance.
We are accelerating the transition to a clean, resilient and environmentally sustainable economy by channelling private capital at pace and scale towards real-economy outcomes, creating jobs and increased prosperity for all.
Our vision
The Green Finance Institute (GFI) is at the forefront of shaping how finance can be used to facilitate real economy transition, globally. We create the enabling environments and financial solutions needed to accelerate the transition to a net-zero and nature positive economy. We test, demonstrate, and scale financial solutions across sectors and geographies, with a tenacious focus on practical outcomes. Often, this involves operationalising pioneering concepts and breaking down barriers to action to enable capital to move between two counterparties.
Our aim is always the same: to fill the execution gap by ensuring that capital flows to the initiatives that make the biggest difference to the real economy.

GFI Hive’s mission is to increase private investment in nature restoration, nature-based solutions
and nature-positive outcomes.
“The systemic risk posed by the climate crisis to financial services requires decisive action and a rapid pivot towards the opportunities presented by the zero-carbon economy. Box-ticking, sloganeering, greenwashing and relying on the heroic efforts of individuals won’t achieve the scale of the transformation required. Cross-sector collaboration and the focused application of the creativity, innovation and skills of the financial services industry to finance the global transition will.”
