In this context, in 2015 the finance and markets (F and M) global practice led the production of a joint World Bank Group (WBG) and International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) report for the G20 on capital markets instruments to mobilize institutional investors to infrastructure and SME financing in emerging market economies. The report focuses on fixed income instruments that can help mobilize domestic institutional investors, in particular pension funds and insurance companies, to infrastructure and SME financing in EMEs and provide policy recommendations to facilitate their use.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOSMEsSMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISEEMERGING MARKET ECONOMIESSME FINANCEBONDSSECURITIESDEBT FUNDSCOVERED BONDSBriefWorld Bank10.1596/28138
