Below the Quote on COP30 by Neha Juneja, Co-founder of EquiRize and IndiaP2P

India stands at the threshold of a defining opportunity where climate finance can drive both economic growth and long term value creation. Climate change has already cost the country about 8 percent of GDP in recent years and projections show potential losses of up to 25 percent by 2070 if emissions remain high. These figures highlight not just risk but the scale of potential returns from sustainable transition.

Investing in climate positive sectors can align financial performance with national resilience. Green infrastructure, clean technology, and SDG linked financial products are poised to benefit from policy support and lower regulatory risk as India advances its green taxonomy and sustainable finance frameworks. As investors look for stable and future ready opportunities, climate aligned assets can deliver both value and impact.

For India, the path to economic growth and climate resilience is the same. Mobilizing private capital for this transition is not only a responsibility but the next frontier for intelligent investing.
