Resource Description

This resource presents the AIGCC Adaptation Policy Assessment Report, which evaluates national adaptation planning (NAP) frameworks across five Asian markets—Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam—focusing on their relevance to private investors.

Why This Matters

As physical climate risks escalate, adaptation finance is increasingly needed. This resource helps investors identify policy signals and enabling environments that can support climate-resilient investment in key Asian markets.

Key Insights

Assesses the visibility, structure, and implementation of each country’s NAPs in the context of investment decision-making
Identifies gaps in integration between adaptation goals and private finance mobilization
Highlights investor-relevant policy features, such as mandates, risk disclosure standards, and institutional collaboration
Notes that while all five countries have adaptation strategies, alignment with financial sector needs remains limited
