| Summary: | This evaluation is a corporate-level
assessment of the role and effectiveness of IFC in its
support to its clients’ inclusive business models. It also
identifies implications and options for IFC’s future support
to inclusive business. The evaluation uses a two-pronged
approach based on: (i) a review of IFC’s entire portfolio
(comparing inclusive business projects with the rest of
IFC’s portfolio), integrating IEG’s relevant evaluative
evidence across different sectors and themes; and (ii) a
focus on the agribusiness sector. Based on the findings of
this evaluation, the report concludes with three options for
IFC to consider: (i) Option 1: Keep the current approach,
(ii) Option 2: Upgrade IFC’s current approach to an
“operational framework”, and (iii) Option 3: Design a
corporate strategy toward inclusive business. |
