Abstract

Entrepreneurs in emerging and developing economies face many challenges curtailing their ability to finance and grow their business ventures. Climate change provides new opportunities for entrepreneurs to gain access to finance and contribute toward more climate-resilient economies. The objective of this chapter is to outline the dimensions of entrepreneurial financing that are sensitive to levels of climate change with emphasis on the financial services sector's role in reacting to these changes. An analysis of current extant literature will be explored, and evidence supporting effective entrepreneurial financing will be used to develop a theoretical framework for climate change and entrepreneurial financing to foster a more climatic conditions-sustainable economy. The literature in this chapter indicated the need for establishing the impact of climate change on entrepreneurial financing in the financial services sector in order to provide recommendations that can direct funding more effectively towards climate-resilient activities and a more climatic conditions-sustainable economy.
