MIGA Annual Report 2020

2020-10-02, Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency

MIGA’s mandate is to promote cross-border private investment in developing countries by providing guarantees (political risk insurance and credit enhancement) to investors and lenders. In FY20, MIGA issued nearly US$4 billion in new guarantees, helping mobilize over US$7 billion in total financing. FY20 projects will provide access to power to some 12.4 million people, procure US$4.3 million in goods locally each year, and avoid approximately 3 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e) emissions per year. Of the 47 projects supported during FY20, 70 percent addressed at least one of the three strategic priority areas: IDA-eligible countries, fragile and conflict-affected situations (FCS), and climate change. Since its creation, MIGA has issued over $59 billion in guarantees across 118 developing countries.

MIGA Annual Report 2017: Insuring Investments, Ensuring Opportunities

2017-10, Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency

In fiscal year 2017, MIGA continued to work on the WBG’s twin goals of eradicating extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity by focusing on IDA (low income) countries, Fragile and Conflicted States, Climate Change and Innovation. Projects we supported will help 8.5 million people gain access to power, help avoid 1.1 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions, and enable access to healthcare for 8.7 million patients. We issued $4.8 billion in guarantees to private investors. This is a record for MIGA. Nearly half of our projects were in IDA. We also continued to work tirelessly to ensure that we supported investments in fragile and conflict-affected countries, which make up 10% of our portfolio.
