Best Practices

SCROLL TO EXPLORE
INTRODUCTION

A curated, practitioner-focused library of proven financial models, policy frameworks, and investment strategies for sustainable urban mobility.

SUMIT’s best practices go beyond theory—each case highlights real-world implementation, financing structures, and replicability potential across cities and regions.

Case Studys

Latin America (E-Mobility)

VGMobility

A pioneering financing model in Colombia, Chile, and Costa Rica that separates asset ownership from operations, enabling cities and transit operators to electrify bus fleets without assuming high upfront capital costs.

VGMobility finances and owns vehicles and charging infrastructure, while operators focus on service delivery—creating a scalable, investment-ready structure applicable across emerging markets. 
Colombia (Sustainable Transport)

Bogotá Green Bond Program

A landmark municipal green bond issuance that enabled Bogotá to access international capital markets to finance large-scale sustainable transport infrastructure, including metro lines, BRT systems, and cable cars.

The model demonstrates how cities can structure investment-grade instruments to attract global investors and fund integrated, low-carbon mobility systems.
Argentina (Multimodal Mobility)

Buenos Aires Integrated Mobility Transformation

A comprehensive urban mobility strategy combining BRT expansion, cycling infrastructure, and public space redesign to improve accessibility, reduce congestion, and enhance urban livability.

The initiative illustrates how coordinated public investment and policy alignment to deliver system-wide mobility improvements without reliance on complex financing structures.
Global (Financing Model)

Green Cities Guarantee Fund (GCGF)

An innovative guarantee mechanism designed to de-risk urban infrastructure investments and unlock significantly greater private capital flows. By improving the risk profile of projects, the model has the potential to mobilize between 6 to 25 times the initial public or concessional capital, making it a powerful tool for scaling sustainable urban mobility investments.
