About
The Luxembourg-EIB Climate Finance Platform (LCFP) is a joint initiative between Luxembourg and the EIB to mobilise and support investment in international climate finance, focusing on climate change mitigation and adaptation. Addressing climate change requires innovative, high-impact finance solutions. The LCFP aims to increase the impact of climate financing by mobilising private sector investment, thereby acting as a catalyst for additional financing.

Donor-funded instruments
The LCFP supports subordinated and other investments in equity and debt funds, as well as direct debt investments, including subordinated and mezzanine debt.
Eligibility
Operations eligible for financing under the LCFP are not limited to a specific geography, but must be in line with the EIB’s climate strategy and Luxembourg's International Climate Finance Strategy for allocating funds.
