Scaling Up the Mobilisation of Private Finance for Climate Action in Developing Countries

Annex A. Country groupings

Developed and developing countries

For the purpose of this report’s analysis and figures, the following classifications are used:

• “Developing countries”, which refer to countries and territories included on the DAC List of ODA Recipients for 2018 development finance and/or on the non-Annex I list of Parties to the UNFCCC.

• “Developed countries”, which include Annex II Parties to the Convention, the Member States of the European Union, Liechtenstein, and Monaco.

Countries and territories that do not fall in these categories (most notably the Russian Federation (Russia) are not covered by the analysis.

Note by the Republic of Türkiye: The information in this document with reference to “Cyprus” relates to the southern part of the Island. There is no single authority representing both Turkish and Greek Cypriot people on the Island. The Republic of Türkiye recognises the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). Until a lasting and equitable solution is found within the context of the United Nations, the Republic of Türkiye shall preserve its position concerning the “Cyprus issue”.

Note by all the European Union Member States of the OECD and the European Union: The Republic of Cyprus is recognised by all members of the United Nations with the exception of the Republic of Türkiye. The information in this document relates to the area under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus.

Regions and sub-regions

The classifications used in this report are inspired by the M49 standard of the United Nations to the extent possible, as well as the DAC regional groupings. Climate finance that is not allocable by region is grouped under “unspecified”.

The divergences from the UN M49 standard in this report are that:

• Central Asia includes all post-soviet countries in Asia, except Russia, namely Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.

• Western Asia is replaced with the Middle East, whereas relevant post-soviet countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia) are included in Central Asia (see above).

• Sudan is included in Eastern Africa, rather than North Africa.

The main reason for these divergences is to ensure consistency with the DAC classification, which is used in the context of the underlying data on multilateral public and private finance mobilised. Moreover, “developed countries” are excluded from the individual regions.
