VIETNAM CLIMATE CHANGE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT Dr. Pham Hoang Mai Director General Dept. of Science, Education, Natural Resources and Environment Ministry of Planning and Investment of Vietnam Viet Nam is among the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change • Over the past decade, climate related disasters (particularly storms and floods) have caused an annual average cost in damages of 2-6 percent of GDP • Viet Nam’s rate of emissions growth currently outstrips that of its GDP growth and committed to reduce the emissions. Vietnam Climate Vulnerability Map from Francisco & Yusuf 2009 LEGAL & INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK • 2011-2015 Socio-economic development plan Recognizes climate change as a significant threat to development and reaffirms commitments on improved natural resource and disaster risk management. • The climate change related strategies/action plans - The 2011 Vietnam Climate Change Strategy (VCCS); - The 2012 Vietnam Green Growth Strategy and the National Action Plan to Respond to Climate Change (NAPCC); - The 2013 National Action Plan for Green Growth Strategy; - The National Target Program to Respond to Climate Change (NTP-RCC) - three phases (2008-2011,2012-2015 and 2015beyond). CLIMATE FINANCE IN VIETNAM Forms of Climate Change Finance Various forms of Climate Change Finance have been introduced to meet the increasing and diversified needs: • Government investment for Climate Change projects and programs (around $1 billion annually): - National Targeted Programs (NTP-RCC, Energy Efficiency, Reforestation); - Projects and programs directly link to Climate Change and Green Growth. • Current expenditure for research, capacity building projects • ODA: from 1993 of about $2 billion under the forms of CC related projects & programs and budget support; • Others: REDD+, Vietnam Environment Protection Fund, CDM. Vietnam Climate Public Expenditure/Investment Review • Clarify alignment of climate change and green growth spending under the national budget; • Assess options for tagging and tracking climate change and green growth relevant expenditures; • Provide analyses on climate change and green growth expenditures; • Recommend improvements in monitoring and assessment; • Assess the institutional set up and governance structures; • Review the existing climate finance architecture; • Suggest appropriate directions for developments of the fiscal policy framework in Viet Nam. Challenges • Total economic costs of CC are about 2-6% GDP or $3-9 billions (ADB 2009) and $1-2,5 billion will be needed for adaptation; • To implement Green growth strategy, about $30 billion will be needed by 2020; • Shortage of policies to mobilize financial sources, particularly International Climate funds; • Difficulties in mobilizing international and domestic investors. Solutions • Legal Framework: Formulating Action plans/ Priority Projects for Climate Change & Green Growth strategies. • Climate Financial Mobilization: + Develop market based mechanism to generate financing for green growth (NAMAs, future cap and trade system); + Improve existing capacity and consolidate the set up and strengthening of fiduciary procedures for resource mobilization (VEPF, VGGSF…). + Set up Climate Finance Task Force & Climate Finance Option. • Climate Finance Utilization: + Formulating Adaptation Prioritization Framework & Green Investment Guideline for public investment . Solutions • Engagement of private sector: + Government investment and ODA will be used as a catalyst to attract/create favorable environment for private investment in Climate Change/Green Growth (Technology transfer/Pilot projects/Good practice); + Introducing on PPP modalities (infrastructure, power generation ).
