This project supports Toronto Centre’s efforts to deliver effective institutional capacity-building programs that promote financial stability and financial inclusion in developing countries. Toronto Centre provides intensive assistance globally, focusing on Sub-Saharan Africa, the Indo-Pacific, and special assistance to Ukraine. For the project’s duration, Toronto Centre’s priorities, as integrated into their core capacity development programs, include: (1) advancing financial inclusion and gender equality; (2) strengthening capacity to manage climate change and biodiversity loss-related risks in financial systems; and (3) accelerating financial sector support for food security amid geopolitical risks. Project activities include: (1) delivering technical, leadership, and supervisory guidance in capacity-building and training programs to financial supervisors in developing countries. This is done through practical and interactive teaching methods developed through a climate and gender lens; (2) offering a Certified Financial Supervisor (CFS) designation; and (3) developing supervisory guidance resources (Toronto Centre notes, webinars, podcasts) supporting developing countries.
