"Public funding is critical to closing the climate finance gap in emerging economies, @ali_readhead emphasized. "Environmental levies can play a role, but must be combined with broader domestic resource mobilization and meaningful debt relief solutions."

With a packed audience at the #FfD4 side event by the Platform for Collaboration on Tax, @IISD_news’s Elisângela Rita questioned the effectiveness of generous tax incentives, noting they “do not necessarily lead to better or more investment.”

Our guidance for governments on #tax #stabilisation clauses in #mining is out! We provide model legal text that countries can use to shift away from automatic inclusion of stabilisation, to a narrower approach. Join us on April 15 to learn more:➡️ lnkd.in/eAFiujNp

#Tax stabilisation is contentious. But global norms and standards on #stabilisation are changing. Key shifts: - exempting non-fiscal issues - only granting fiscal stabilisation based on commercial need - limiting scope and time - exempting anti-avoidance rules - alternatives
IISD Economies@IISD_ELP

📣 Stabilization clauses should no longer automatically be included in investor-state contracts📝. If they are, they should, at a minimum, build on the latest international standards to avoid being a barrier to #sustainabledevelopment🌎. 👉 IISD blog: iisd.org/articles/insig…

We’re proud to partner with @UNDP to help secure an ambitious outcome for the Fourth Financing for Development Conference. Top priorities for us at #FfD4 are: 1) a coherent, integrated approach to financing #SDGs, #climate, and #nature, and 2) a grander bargain on #debt relief.
IISD Economies@IISD_ELP

Last month, @IISD_news was at the 2nd Symposium on Finance, Integrity and Governance. As @UNDP’s knowledge partner, we shape research to inform the #FfD4 process, towards solutions for effective financing strategies that respond to the challenges faced by developing countries🌍

A key milestone has been reached as the @UN continues efforts to create a new international tax framework. But there’s a lack of consensus from some major economies. @IISD_ELP’s @KudzaiMataba explains what you need to know. #UNTaxConvention 🔎 bit.ly/3XhUIUB
