I. Impact of Private Sector on… … Inclusion • Research indicates inequality of income, opportunities, assets, and access to services can hinder the ability of poor people to benefit from economic growth1. • Geographic and sectoral patterns of growth (e.g. where poor people live and sectors where they work) is likely to provide greater opportunities for the poor to benefit from economic growth. • Growing recognition that private businesses play an important role in creating opportunities, in increasing options for employment, service provision, and entrepreneurship for the poor.

II. Role of IFIs in Private Sector Development B. IFIs’ Role in Filling the Gap • Providing finance to private companies that lack sufficient access to private capital and finance (debt, equity, guarantees): USD 42,000 million (2009) • Providing related advisory products to bring in scarce knowledge essential to facilitate effective investments: • • • •
Improve the investment climate Improve project performance and impact on development Foster private sector involvement and competition Enhance environmental, social and corporate governance – ESG effectiveness
• Providing comfort in difficult environments to bring in other investors • Demonstrating the viability of private solutions in difficult or new areas, leading to further investments 13

A euro of IFI capital can leverage as much as EUR 12 of project investment The projects also generate revenues for shareholders to reinvest in development Projects also contribute to host country finances, at least EUR 3 per year for every euro of IFI shareholder capital

II. Role of IFIs in Private Sector Development B. IFIs’ Role in Filling the Gap • IFIs explicitly target the higher risk/complexity countries and sectors in their private sector operations • Examples: – EBRD: tracks percentage in low/medium transition economies – FMO: lower income country focus (50% in 2009) – DEG tracks percentage of investments in low income or high risk countries – Proparco: growth in Africa is one of four focus areas – IFC: targets percent projects in IDA (50%) and targets higher risk projects in Middle Income Countries – SOFID: targets investments promoted by Portuguese SME (min 20% stake), most of which are in Sub-Saharan Africa Sources: IFI Annual Reports

â&#x20AC;˘ IFI Financial commitments to private sector have grown significantly â&#x20AC;˘ Mobilisation of additional resources is a key strong point 19
II. Role of IFIs in Private Sector Development C. Results • IFIs have developed systems that track development outcome success rates for private sector projects with good results • IFI development outcome success measurements typically are based on items such as financial, economic, environment and social outcomes, and private sector development. • Development outcome results systems are not yet harmonized, but results generally show 70-85% of mature projects exceeding targeted benchmarks1. • Some IFIs also look at “win-win” outcomes with both high development outcomes and high IFI financial returns, showing that development outcome and IFI financial outcome tend to go together2. 1. 2.

II. Role of IFIs in Private Sector Development C. Results • EDFI – the European Development Finance Institutions show, for the average of € 5,000 million in new private sector projects committed each year, the following were generated per annum (20062008) 1: – 81,000 new jobs created over 422,000 direct jobs provided – 1.3 million indirect jobs procured through value chains and sub-borrowers – EUR 1,700 million in annual government revenues 1.

II. Role of IFIs in Private Sector Development C. Results IFIs’ Role in…: … Private Investments: power, roads, telecom, ports, water with total commitments of about USD 9,000 million per year … SME: IFIs have an important demonstration effect acting via financial intermediaries or through direct investments … Financial Sector: IFIs support banks and others (finance and advice) when many companies face major constraints … Agribusiness: support investments along the supply chain from growing, storing, producing and distributing … ESG (Environment, Social and Governance): IFIs lead in helping firms establish strong ESG standards, targeting the poor and involving local communities … Innovation: IFIs help transfer knowledge and support innovative approaches in water, IT, PPPs, energy efficiency, toll roads, software and 22 pharmaceuticals

II. Conclusions • • • •
Poverty reduction requires a vibrant private sector Private sector involvement benefits from IFIs standards IFIs fills private sector gaps in finance and knowledge IFIs are recognised as having reached a significant scale in global private sector finance • IFIs continue to improve and are reaching towards the next level in helping with development • Together with aid and public sector development banks (blending and public/private coordination) more can be achieved… after all… 24
