Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, iklim finansmanını sürdürülebilir ekonomi perspektifinden incelemektir. Çalışmanın kapsamı, uluslararası iklim finansmanını içermektedir. Yöntem olarak, güncel küresel verilere dayalı betimleyici analiz kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, zaman içerisinde iklim finansmanında kamu-özel sektör ayrımının özel sektör lehine artış gösterdiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Özel sektör içerisinde en yüksek payı hanehalkı/bireyler alırken, kamu sektöründe ise en fazla fonu ulusal kalkınma finansman kuruluşlarının aldığı görülmektedir. Sonuç olarak, ekonomi ve finans alanında sürdürülebilirliğin bir parçası olarak iklim odaklı projeler, küresel ve yerel finansman kaynaklarında giderek daha merkezi ve belirleyici bir unsur haline gelmektedir. Sürdürülebilirlik anlayışının yükselişiyle birlikte, yerel ve uluslararası finansal kuruluşlar tarafından uluslararası kredi piyasalarında ‘iklim finansmanı’nda artış gözlemlenmektedir.

International Climate Finance Within the Framework of Sustainable Economy

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to review climate finance from the standpoint of sustainable economy. It covers international climate finance. As a method, descriptive analysis is employed by examining recent global figures. Findings indicate that climate finance public-private split has increased in favor of private sector throughout the time, the households/individuals take the highest amount for private sector, while the national development finance institutions receive the largest amount for the public, climate finance instruments were not equally distributed among each other. The paper concludes that climate-oriented projects as part of sustainability in economy are becoming key and pivotal issue in global and local finance and more funds have been directed to ‘climate finance’ in international loan markets by local and international financial institutions with the rise of the notion of sustainability.
