The Climate Finance Vulnerability Index (CliF-VI) provides a comprehensive understanding of nations’ climate vulnerability to help improve the targeting and provision of climate change adaptation financing. It shows a country’s climate and financial vulnerability as well as governance considerations that may impact lending.

This index highlights the compounding effects of high climate risk and low access to capital while helping to guide climate adaptation funding to those most in need.

It has been built by Columbia Climate School in the US with support from The Rockefeller Foundation.
