President Dr Mohamed Muizzu attended the High-Level Briefing on Private Capital Mobilisation, hosted by His Majesty King Charles III.

The briefing was organised by the Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI), an initiative established by His Majesty King Charles III, bringing together Heads of Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) and leaders in private finance.

The session focused on accelerating global efforts to mobilise private capital for solutions that advance global sustainability goals.

During the briefing, the President took part in discussions on advancing debt-for-climate and debt-for-nature initiatives, as well as strengthening private sector cooperation in green finance.

He also highlighted the challenges and urgent financing needs faced by the Maldives and other Small Island Developing States (SIDS), offering recommendations on how to address them.

President Dr Muizzu’s visit to the United Kingdom, at the invitation of His Majesty King Charles III, provides renewed momentum for the Maldives’ advocacy for equitable and effective sustainable finance to support climate resilience.

The meeting represents an important step in global efforts to bridge public ambition with private investment.
