These benefits broadly include climate change mitigation, climate change adaptation, natural resource conservation, biodiversity conservation, and pollution prevention and control. It is estimated that green financing must be scaled to tens of trillions of dollars in investments in the coming decades, to meet global environmental ambitions. As momentum is growing in mainstreaming green finance into the architecture and practice of financial and capital markets, progress is being made in areas of policy, regulations, standards, guidelines, principles, and fiscal incentives. The current challenge is to take the groundwork that has been laid and turn it into real and significant flows of private and public capital to investments that both support sustainable development objectives and bring secure long-term prospects for investors. This paper aims to provide a piece to this puzzle regarding the role of Multinational Development Banks (MDBs) in greening the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The purpose of this paper is to assist MDBs in developing their role, by providing an understanding of how MDB characteristics can be used to comprehensively green the BRI. This research on MDBs in green finance is a strategic research priority of the International Institute of Green Finance. Based on the IIGFs previous research the current practice of MDBs in green finance and on MDB cooperation in green finance, this paper goes into detail with MDBs in the BRI. Looking forward, the IIGF will continue its research on MDBs such as within green bond development, green finance standards, and local green finance development. The paper aims to make concrete and actionable recommendations to MDBs and their stakeholders. Therefore, the paper gathers input from a wide range of sources such as a selection of MDBs themselves, governments, research institutions, and financial institutions. This ensures that the paper is rooted deeply in current practice and discussions on the topic, ultimately improving the practical applicability of the recommendations put forward. The target audience of this paper includes several groups. First, the paper aims to provide valuable information to MDBs, which can be turned into concrete actions. Second, the pape
