| Summary: | Financing infrastructure in emerging
markets is a critical global challenge for sustainable
development. Through a new International Finance Corporation
(IFC) program, private institutional investors can directly
participate in the evolving infrastructure asset class in
emerging markets. The program, IFC’s managed co-lending
portfolio program for infrastructure, creates a structure
that overcomes several hurdles that have inhibited the flow
of private capital to emerging market infrastructure
projects. It provides an innovative model to mobilize
financing for development that combines financing from
insurance companies, project origination and credit
enhancement from IFC, and support from public sector donors. |
