The @IFC_org journey started 65 years ago. Since then, we've become the largest international institution focused on the private sector in #emergingmarkets. How do we do it? What's our latest strategy? Find out in the 1st episode of #IFCExplained:

If we don’t limit global warming and protect people from the climate crisis, we won’t succeed in ending poverty in developing economies. The @WorldBank Group's new #ClimateChange Action Plan puts private companies & investors at the heart of that ambition: https://t.co/p2tJEtcZca

Fascinating to hear about increased #impactinvesting during #COVID19, as asset owners support investments to help solve global challenges. Great insights from @Zurich @JohannaKoeb & Vijay Advani. Watch the #IFCInsights replay ⬇️ https://t.co/QfKFNtUMJO #Invest4Impact #impinv

Proud to be together with @SecYellen and @cafreeland at the G7 ministers of finance meeting in London. For the first time, thanks to the U.S.🇺🇸, Canada 🇨🇦 and the IMF , three women are at the table. Diversity matters: more inclusive discussions lead to better decisions.
