We don't just need conferences, more 'blah blah blah'—we need connected, joined-up action written into the operating system of our multilateral order. My latest, reflecting on #FfD4, on building a multilateralism that's greater than the sum of its parts, from Seville to Belém to

For a decade, we've been told blended finance would turn "billions into trillions." The reality? Just $15 billion annually—less than 0.4% of the $4 trillion needed for SDGs. My reflections from #FfD4 ➡️ Our recent paper on Blended Finance ➡️
