The Sustainable Development Finance Strategy can be captured in a visualization depicting its
potential value and ease of implementation. As indicated in the illustration below, the
Sustainable Development Finance Strategy can be positioned as a “flagship proposal” – a

priority. To arrive at the illustration, the Sustainable Development Finance Strategy was scored
along two dimensions: ease of implementation and potential value. A total integrated project
score of 89 points (out of 100) is achieved. The scoring breakdown is provided below:
