Fragility threatens to slow or reverse recent gains in poverty reduction. If current trends persist, by 2030, more than half of the world s poor will live in countries affected by high levels of violence.

12 Meeting Development Goals: The World Bank Group s Unique Positioning The WBG business model Global reach Convening Power & Partnership Country-led Financing Public & Private Knowledge maximizes development impact. 11

13 Meeting Development Goals: The World Bank Group s Unique Positioning The World Bank Group is uniquely positioned to mobilize domestic resources, attract private capital, and create markets. Use of public sector solutions helps to: Establish a supportive investment climate to mobilize private capital for investment in development Address market failures & reduce risks. Improve domestic resource mobilization, from tax revenues to capital markets Enhance public expenditure management IDA & IBRD IFC & MIGA Use of private sector solutions helps to: Create jobs in a sustainable manner Improve access to services, innovation and technology Demonstrate commercial viability of new markets Strengthen financial intermediation & expand local capital markets Generate tax revenues Mobilize third party capital Increase competition, set standards & improve sector performance Both private and public sector arms play an equally important role. 12

14 CAPITAL INCREASE A Historic Vote of Confidence $13 bn CAPITAL INCREASE In April 2018, shareholders approved a landmark $13 billion capital increase package: $7.5 billion for the World Bank $5.5 billion for IFC MORE THAN 3X PAID-IN CAPITAL This more than triples the amount of paid-in capital IFC has received since inception in IFC s annual IDA transfers have also been suspended. Along with the paid-in capital, these provides a total of $9.2 billion in new capital to support IFC operations. 13

15 CAPITAL INCREASE What it Means for IFC By 2030, IFC is now targeting: Increasing annual investment commitments to $48 billion ($25 billion for IFC s own account, $23 billion mobilized from others) Having 40% of these investments be in IDA countries and fragile and conflict-affected areas Making 35% of its own-account investments climate-related Scaling up on gender: investing $2.6 billion per year in financial institutions targeting women and increasing by 50% the number of women directors on companies where IFC has a board seat. 14

16 ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS The Cascade: A Decision-Making Sequence Prioritizing Private Sector Solutions Is there a sustainable private sector solution that limits public debt and contingent liabilities? If the answer is YES, we promote private solutions AFGHANISTAN If the answer is NO, we ask: Is it because of: Policy or regulatory gaps or weaknesses? If so, we provide support for policy and regulatory reforms. If the project requires public funding, we pursue that option The IFC-funded Rikweda raisinprocessing plant is helping 3,000 smallholder farmers by buying their produce at higher prices. Risks? If so, we assess whether World Bank Group instruments can mitigate them. 15

17 ACHIEVING THE BEST OUTCOMES FIJI The first developing nation to issue a $50M sovereign green bond to reduce the impact of climate change INDIA Sewage plants to clean up the Ganga River and improve water quality for millions MADAGASCAR Financing of BoViMa to revitalize the country's cattle industry and create jobs 16
