| Summary: | At the heart of International Finance
Corporation’s (IFC’s) approach to blended finance are
efforts to create and help sustain private markets with
strong development impact. This note explores the role of
blended finance in creating markets and looks at lessons
from three blended finance projects and structures - and how
each contributed to the creation of markets that are
scalable, sustainable, and resilient. The projects
illustrate the value of using blended finance to kick-start
markets and to push to achieve long-term financing on
commercial terms. They also carry important lessons for
using and scaling up blended finance in the future. |
