中央经济工作会议指出，"加强气象监测预报预警体系建设，加紧补齐北方地区防洪排涝抗灾基础设施 短板，提高应对极端天气能力。" 开展气象预警，提高防灾、减灾、救灾能力都是适应气候变化的重要举措。我国2035年国家自主贡献也 提出，到2035年，气候适应型社会基本建成。适应气候变化已刻不容缓，但资金却是难题。公共资金总 量有限，社会资本又对这类项目的回报与风险心存担忧。 在这种背景下，"混合融资"被认为是解决气候资金缺口的关键机制之一。 在第13届中国责任投资论坛上，自然资源保护协会与北京大学国家发展研究院宏观与绿色金融实验室联 合发布《混合融资支持气候转型：国际经验与中国模式》（以下简称《报告》）。 《报告》指出，通过引入优惠资本并让其承担更高风险并接受较低财务回报率，混合融资可优化整个项 目的风险收益结构，从而提升商业资本的参与意愿。 极端天气的肆虐下，全球已然意识到了增强气候适应能力的紧迫性。 日前闭幕的2025年联合国气候变化大会（COP30）明确，发达国家到2035年将对发展中国家的气候适应 资金增加两倍，从每年400亿美元提升至1200亿美元。 然而，资金的兑现严重缺位。 《联合国气候变化框架公约》（U ...

Financing Decision Dimensions - M&A financing decisions typically consider seven dimensions, including financing type combinations, maturity, yield basis, currency, innovative clauses, control, and issuance methods [4][6][7][8][9][10]. - The optimal financing combination usually starts with internal financing, followed by debt financing, and finally equity financing, aiming for maximum company value [6]. Financing Channels - M&A financing channels can be classified into internal and external categories. Internal channels include retained earnings and tax liabilities, while external channels encompass bank loans, non-financial institution funds, and foreign capital [10]. - External financing is characterized by speed and flexibility but comes with higher costs and risks [10]. Special Financing Methods - M&A funds pool third-party capital for acquisitions, often involving private equity funds and listed companies, leveraging both financial tools and platform resources [15]. - Leveraged buyouts (LBOs) utilize financial leverage to acquire companies with minimal upfront capital, relying on the target's assets and future cash flows for repayment [16]. - Management buyouts (MBOs) involve company management acquiring shares, aligning ownership and management roles, typically in stable cash flow environments [17]. - Asset securitization transforms illiquid assets into liquid asset-backed securities, enhancing cash flow management [18]. Evaluating M&A Financing Plans - The evaluation of M&A financing plans should consider flexibility, risk, return, control, and timing [19]. - Comparing different financing options, such as debt versus equity, reveals trade-offs in liquidity, risk exposure, earnings per share, control dilution, and market perception [19][20].

Core Viewpoint - Climate change is increasingly recognized as a global health emergency, with projections indicating that it could lead to 250,000 deaths annually between 2030 and 2050, highlighting the urgent need for comprehensive data and resources to address this crisis [1][2]. Group 1: Impact on Health - Rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns in Nepal have exacerbated the spread of vector-borne diseases like dengue fever, with cases emerging in previously unaffected high-latitude regions [2]. - Extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and floods, not only cause immediate fatalities but also disrupt essential health and medical services [2]. - Research indicates that heat exposure can adversely affect maternal health, leading to low birth weight and preterm births, while occupational heat exposure may reduce fertility rates [2]. Group 2: Funding Challenges - The funding gap for health protection reached over $500 billion in 2023, a figure that is expected to grow as climate change exacerbates existing vulnerabilities [2]. - The UN Climate Conference (COP29) resulted in a commitment from developed countries to provide at least $300 billion annually to developing nations by 2035, which falls short of the $1.3 trillion requested by these countries [3][4]. - Concerns are rising regarding a potential 9% to 17% decline in official development assistance by 2025, translating to a loss of billions in aid funding [4]. Group 3: Financing Solutions - There is a call for climate-related financing to become a mainstream component of global health funding, with an emphasis on mobilizing various funding sources, including climate funds and global health initiatives [4][5]. - Mixed financing approaches are highlighted as essential, with private capital, insurance funds, and multilateral development banks playing crucial roles in climate financing [5]. - Establishing cross-sector data-sharing mechanisms is deemed vital for effective decision-making and to ensure that health interventions are cost-effective and based on high-quality research [5].
