Description
IFC - a member of the World Bank Group - is the largestglobal development institution focused on the private sector in emergingmarkets. We work in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, andinfluence to create markets and opportunities. Our mission is to leverage thepower of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperityon a livable planet.
The Financial Institutions Group(FIG) is one of the major industry groups at IFC, responsible for managing roughly40% of IFC's overall business in terms of volume and capital at risk. FIGengages in a wide range of sub-sectors including Microfinance, SME, Gender,Climate, Insurance, Capital Markets, Housing, Distressed Assets, and other areas,with both investment and advisory services delivered to IFC's clients throughIFC's global network.
The sustainability and growth ofMSMEs is key to the World Bank Group's twin goals to reduce extreme poverty andboost shared prosperity. IFC's Committed MSME Portfolio has grown to ~ US 19billion (including mobilization of US$ 2.7 billion) for the last 5 years.
