IFC Annual Report 2017: Creating Markets
(Washington, DC, 2017-10)The International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), two institutions focused on private sector development, are leading our efforts to create markets and crowd in private sector investment in developing countries. For six decades, IFC has been at the leading edge of mobilizing private capital for development, which will be essential to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. With the knowledge that have accumulated over sixty years, IFC is uniquely placed to give the private sector a central role in financing and delivering development solutions. The scale of this ambition, together with IFC’s objective of doing more in the poorest countries, requires a new strategic framework, based on new analytical and financial tools and approaches, which IFC is now rolling out. In the FY17 context of strengthening growth and improving market conditions in developing economies, IFC delivered a record 19.3 billion US dollars in financing to private companies in seventy five countries. This year, IFC launched the world’s biggest green-bond fund dedicated to emerging markets. In FY17, sixty three percent of IFC’s advisory program was delivered to clients in IDA countries and twenty percent in fragile and conflict-affected areas, while twenty six percent was climate-related. In addition, almost a third of new advisory projects included a focus on gender impact in project design. IFC continues to innovate beyond the successful loan syndications and investments by IFC Asset Management Company in private equity. Through strong partnerships with the private and public sectors, IFC can enhance its power to create markets and improve the lives of millions of people. -

IFC The First Six Decades: Leading the Way in Private Sector Development--A History
(International Finance Corporation, Washington, DC, 2016-11-08)This is a story of experience - an unparalleled body of knowledge built up in the toughest markets, under the most challenging conditions, and applied to address the world’s most urgent development challenges. Six decades ago, a few dozen countries made a calculated bet on the transformative potential of the private sector in developing countries. They put up 100 million dollars in capital and established International Finance Corporation (IFC) to reinforce the work of the World Bank in spurring growth and development. Today, IFC is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector, having delivered nearly 250 billion dollars in financing to businesses in emerging markets. Throughout its history, IFC has introduced new approaches to meet the needs of developing countries. IFC consistently brought to bear a distinctive set of advantages in working with the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity - a history of innovation, a mandate for global influence, an understanding of the demonstration effect of its actions, and a determination to achieve measurable development impact. Six decades of experience and a record of innovation and thought leadership in private sector development have made the organization essential for creating opportunity where it’s needed most. -

IFC Financials and Projects 2014 : Big Challenges, Big Solutions
(Washington, DC: World Bank Group, 2014-09-25)International Finance Corporation (IFC or the Corporation) is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in developing countries. Established in 1956, IFC is owned by 184 member countries, a group that collectively determines its policies.

Membership in IFC is open only to member countries of IBRD. At the 2013 Spring Meetings, the WBG adopted two ambitious goals: to end extreme poverty by 2030 and to boost shared prosperity for the poorest 40 percent in developing countries. At the Annual Meetings in October 2013, the Board of Governors approved the first strategy for the WBG focused on delivery of transformational solutions, marshaling combined resources more effectively, and accelerating collaboration with the private sector and our development partners. IFC s strategic focus areas are: strengthening the focus on frontier markets; addressing climate change and ensuring environmental and social sustainability; addressing constraints to private sector growth in infrastructure, health, education, and the food-supply chain; developing local financial markets; and building long-term client relationships in emerging markets. -
