In focus
Staying the course on climate action in Latin America
In Latin America, the EIB Group works hand-in-hand with governments, development banks and the private sector to transform climate action into tangible impact. In 2024 alone, the Group provided €1.2 billion in financing for projects across Latin America and the Caribbean, the vast majority of which was directly allocated to initiatives that mitigate or adapt to climate change. In Latin America, as elsewhere, the EIB Group stays the course as a steadfast partner in financing the green transition.
