## Description
In partnership with the industry-led EMDE Investor Taskforce convened by the Minister for International Development and the Economic Secretary to the Treasury, DESNZ on behalf of the UK government is commissioning a scoping study to consider the risks raised in 'The UK as a Climate Finance Hub’ report [1] and determine whether additional research is needed.
The scoping study will include a literature review that addresses the points raised in the report, specifically and including (i) the risk that climate change poses to UK and global financial stability and how current approaches manage that risk; (ii) the potential impact of a delayed or failed transition in EMDE on portfolios held by investors based in developed markets, including the UK, taking into account a globally connected financial system, supply chains and trade dependencies, and the location of many systemically important natural assets and transition commodities; and (iii) the scale of the opportunity for private sector financial institutions to invest in the climate transition in EMDEs, and their appetite for doing so.
The scoping study will be funded by DESNZ and delivered by an external delivery partner. The maximum contract budget for this work is £80,000 excluding VAT.
The scoping study will be delivered within 12 weeks through two discrete elements:
- Literature review, supported by engagement with relevant international financial architecture[2] (IFA) actors
- Recommendations on whether further targeted research is desirable, the form and focus this would take if so, and future stakeholder engagement and delivery 
The delivery partner will be responsible for identifying, contracting, and managing any subcontractors and subject matter experts required to deliver its required outputs and outcomes as specified in this scope of works.
