One of the world’s leading climate gatherings, Climate Week NYC 2025 brought together government leaders, investors, academics, and civil society from September 21 to 28 to drive action toward a low-carbon, nature-positive economy. Discussions emphasized practical financing solutions and the role of private capital in scaling climate and biodiversity initiatives, key themes for Brazil’s financial sector.

Anbima joined the agenda with the participation of Cacá Takahashi, director and coordinator of the Anbima Sustainability Network, and Marcelo Billi, head of Sustainability, Innovation, and Education. The two took part in high-level discussions at the Brazil Climate Summit and the SDGs in Brazil events, as well as the World Climate and Biodiversity Summit, supported by Anbima.

Representing Brazil’s capital markets at the summit, Billi spoke on the panel “Building a Nature-Positive Economy: Aligning Capital with Climate, Nature, and Value.” He shared how institutional investors and asset managers are adjusting strategies to address climate and environmental risks while capturing long-term value and resilience.

The week reinforced the potential of blended finance—combining public, private, and philanthropic capital—as a key mechanism to unlock climate transition funding. Brazil’s market was presented as a global climate and nature solutions hub, with Anbima highlighting the role of self-regulation and new financial instruments in scaling sustainable investment.

This initiative is part of the Anbima Sustainability Network and supports Anbima in Action 2025/2026, the association’s strategic agenda to strengthen representation, promote innovation, and lower compliance costs across Brazil’s financial and capital markets.
