Dutch term or phrase: financiering op schaal

Is there a set phrase for this? Comes up in a document about the Dutch climate strategy.

Het kabinet werkt samen met [multilaterale ontwikkelingsbanken] om de benodigde financiering op schaal te mobiliseren.

Other examples in a similar context found online: "We dragen bij aan het mobiliseren van private financiering op schaal om het financieringsgat voor SDG's, klimaatmitigatie en -adaptatie te helpen dichten" and "Wil jij jouw ervaring en talent steken in het helpen mobiliseren van private financiering op schaal voor de SDGs en de klimaatdoelen?"
