81307505 - Private Sector Innovation II (PSI II) Text automatically translated in your browsing language Automatically translated
The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH was commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) to implement the project "Private Sector Innovation" (PSI) in Egypt with the aim to improve the competitive situation of the Egyptian industry in light of increasing market requirements for a green transformation of the economy." As an output, the project aims to strategically align the financing portfolio of relevant financial system actors more strongly with a green transformation of Egyptian industry. Employees of financial system actors at all levels of the organization receive advisory and capacity development measures on selected topics in the placement of green financial products (e.g., adaptation of the criteria for granting green loans, development of marketing strategies). The selected financial system actors are advised on the development of strategic documents (e.g., sustainability strategies), more sustainable alignment of their structures (e.g., sustainability units) or the introduction of standards for recording and reporting emissions (e.g., Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF)). As background, Egypt's financial systems hosts a diverse array of institutions, including banks, capital markets, and non-banking financial institutions, each playing a distinctive role in shaping the country's economic landscape. In recent years, the government has undertaken reforms aimed at enhancing transparency, improving regulatory frameworks, and attracting foreign investment to enhance the depth and efficiency of Egypt's financial markets. Financial institutions in Egypt are increasingly recognizing the importance of integrating green finance principles into their operations and investment strategies. In response to growing environmental concerns and international commitments to combat climate change, banks and other financial entities in Egypt are actively exploring ways to support sustainable development while mitigating environmental risks. Regulatory bodies have established monitoring and enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance with green finance principles, fostering transparency and accountability across the financial sector. By implementing robust green finance regulations, Egypt aims to unlock new opportunities for investment in renewable energy, climate resilience, and sustainable infrastructure, while simultaneously addressing pressing environmental challenges and advancing its sustainable development agenda. The overall goal of this assignment is to support financial service providers (FSPs) in Egypt, including banking and non-banking financial institutions, for example banks, insurance companies, microfinance institutions, leasing companies, factoring companies, in their green economic transition and provide them with technical assistance support and trainings to finance green businesses. The target group of this assignment are primarily top and middle-level managements of FSPs (departmental, divisional level or key officials in charge of tasks related to Sustainable Finance) as well as selected product and relationship managers and other key staff nominated by FSPs. The beneficiaries are Egyptian companies who are looking for investments to green their businesses. Those Egyptian companies shall receive financial commitments from FSPs as a result of the project efforts. In short, the initiative aims to enhance FSPs capacities in Egypt to provide finance for companies and their green transformation investments.
