The Road to a Larger Universe of ‘investible’ SDG Projects
Room: BB12
Description
The lack for investible projects is a binding constraint to make markets more inclusive and to mobilize at scale. Investible refers to projects, which are compliant with integrity and ESG standards that an investor would reasonably expect. A lot of the blended finance conversation has focused on financial de-risking. Other risks, such as sponsor, project or investment climate risk will remain. The session will focus on how blended finance can increase the universe of investible projects; it will review the experience of technical assistance facilities in project preparation and explore ways on how pipeline building can be improved and scaled.
