BARCELONA - A new patchwork of pledges from the world’s biggest development lenders, set to release hundreds of billions of dollars for poorer nations, has raised hopes the financial floodgates are finally starting to open in tackling climate change and poverty.

Many of the financial reform measures had been proposed by Barbados, whose leader Mia Mottley said governments were leaving Paris with “a commitment to get down into the granular details to make sure that what we agree here can be executed”.
