At SFA, we help financial institutions align their operations with climate goals and international sustainability standards. Green finance has become a global priority, driven not only by international financial institutions (IFIs) but increasingly by local regulators seeking to accelerate the transition to low-carbon, resilient economies.
Whether you are designing your first green loan product or scaling an existing green finance programme, we provide the expertise to develop practical, institution-specific solutions. We work with banks, MFIs, and leasing companies to embed sustainability into core lending strategies, turning regulatory expectations and development priorities into viable, high-impact products. Our advisory covers green framework development, environmental and social (E&S) risk integration, climate-aligned portfolio structuring, internal capacity-building, and more.
Our services include:
– Development of green lending frameworks and eligible investment taxonomies;
– Design of green loan products for key sectors such as energy efficiency, agriculture, transport, etc.;
– Development of tools and instruments for eligibility determination and impact calculation;
– Structuring of green finance pipelines for internal or IFI-supported programmes;
– Integration of environmental and social (E&S) risk assessment tools into credit processes;
– Design of impact monitoring frameworks aligned with IFI standards;
– Sector-specific market studies and opportunity analyses to identify green potential;
– Additional support based on institutional needs and project scope.
By combining international best practices with local market insight, we help ensure that green finance becomes a scalable and commercially viable line of business.
