An initial assessment survey with Financial Service Providers in LATAM and East Africa

We conducted an extensive survey with Financial Service Providers (FSPs) in Latin America and East Africa to understand how they are navigating climate risks and incorporating gender-sensitive strategies into their operations. This report reveals the insights and experiences of institutions across Mexico, Brazil, Kenya, Senegal, and more, highlighting their efforts to manage climate challenges, develop climate-smart products, and enhance disaster preparedness. It also identifies key barriers, such as limited financial resources and technical expertise, while uncovering emerging opportunities for growth and innovation in climate action.
