Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) is an independent non-profit research group and international climate policy organization based in San Francisco, California with other offices worldwide.[3][4] CPI is supported primarily by philanthropic organizations and government development finance.[5][6][3]

With over 150 analysts and advisors[5] the climate think tank works to improve energy and land use policies around the world, with a particular focus on finance.[7][8] It is considered a leading expert group in tracking global climate finance.[2][9][10] Beginning with the Landscape of Climate Finance (2011), CPI has published a series of annual reports which examine both public and private financial flows worldwide. CPI also publishes in-depth case studies on the public sector's mobilization of private investment.[11] As of 2021, CPI reported that flows of climate-related finance in and between countries account for only about 0.7% of the world’s GDP, far below the amount that is projected to be needed for climate mitigation and adaptation.[12] The San Giorgio Group (SGG), a working group established by CPI and others in 2011, focuses on ways in which financing can support green low-emissions investment.[13][11]
