WFE Accessing Transition Finance-A Practical Guide for Issuers

February 26, 2026--Transition finance that enables the economy and finance to move towards Net Zero and other sustainability-related goals is a significant opportunity for businesses and investors.
Global climate finance, which supports activities that are already green, reached $1.9 tr in 2023 and is estimated to have exceeded $2 tr in 2024.

These figures constitute a mere fraction of the investment needed to bring along the rest of the world - i.e. those parts of the economy that are not already 'green'-and stay on a pathway to achieving Net Zero by 2050. As a result, there is a significant funding gap, estimated to range from $4.5 tr to $7.8 tr annually based on current spending. As net-zero deadlines approach and decarbonisation urgency intensifies (especially for 'hard-to-abate' sectors), a growing share of sustainable capital is expected to be directed towards transition finance.
