The CBA Matching Tool is an operational support system that helps ASCEND partner cities connect their projects with the right financing options. By analysing technical, economic, and risk-related variables, it suggests which financial instruments best fit each project’s profile.
The tool assess project maturity and investor readiness helping city representatives involved in economic and financial planning to make decisions with clarity and confidence. It organises input data, categorises projects by capital needs and perceived risks, and automatically identifies suitable financing options. When a project isn’t fully ready, the CBA Matching Tool highlights areas for improvement and provides a clear roadmap toward bankability, supporting more informed decisions and stronger project outcomes.
