Currently investors look at NDCs to get clarity on long term decarbonisation targets, but NDCs
vary significantly in quality and detail across countries, and often lack sufficient information to
effectively guide investment decision-making…
‘We use mostly absolute
carbon reduction levels
objectives and developed
our own methodology to
assess ambition and
credibility of those
commitments’.
‘NDCs could be even more
influential but unfortunately
the current NDCs lack
strategic orientation and do
not provide information that
can directly inform and
catalyse private investment’.
How helpful are NDCs for investors?

Countries can attract the finance needed to achieve their climate and
development goals, beyond public finance sources.
Investors can better understand the policy landscape and investment
potential across sectors, to inform asset allocation and risk management.
NDCs could support dialogue between countries and financiers, to address
barriers and systemic risks and to co-develop investment opportunities.
NDCs can provide insights into the specific circumstances that shape a country’s
climate and development objectives, and how its targets respond to local needs.
Enhanced NDCs – the mutual opportunity
