Description
IFC
— a member of the World Bank Group — is the largest global development
institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work
in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, and influence
to create markets and opportunities. Our mission is to leverage the
power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared
prosperity on a livable planet. For more information, visit www.ifc.org.

IFC
has embarked on an ambitious new strategy to stimulate more investment
activity by Creating Markets, including in Low Income Countries (LICs)
and Fragile and Conflict Situations (FCS). This new strategy requires a
shift in our approach to proactively create, deepen and expand markets
and projects rather than waiting for clients to propose projects for IFC
to finance. This strategy also relies on upstream work with Governments
and World Bank colleagues to enable private sector solutions and
financing. We call this approach the “Cascade.” Working with clients, we
will first seek private sector solutions to address development
challenges, where such solutions are advisable and can be effective, and
reserve public financing for projects only when other options are
suboptimal.
