Description
IFC a member of the World Bank Group is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, and influence to create markets and opportunities in developing countries. In fiscal year 2023, IFC committed a record $43.7 billion to private companies and financial institutions in developing countries, leveraging the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity as economies grapple with the impacts of global compounding crises. For more information, visitIFCs Vice Presidency for Economics & Private Sector Development provides thought leadership on private sector development, in collaboration with economists throughout the World Bank Group, and helps guide IFC operations towards development outcomes. The Development Impact Measurement Department (CDI), part of the Economics & Private Sector Development Vice Presidency, analyzes economic sectors with a view to identifying opportunities and solutions for private sector development, and works closely with IFC Operations in formulating sector priorities and strategies. It is expected to provide technical support to operations related to structuring, appraising, and monitoring investment and advisory projects and is responsible for reporting on IFCs impact. The department is in charge of fully developing and implementing the ex-ante project assessment framework (Anticipated Impact Measurement and Monitoring- AIMM) for investment and advisory projects throughout the project cycle, help ensure high-quality economic support for IFC operations teams on strategies and projects; and develop sector economic analyses with a focus on solutions for private sector development.
CDI is comprised of mainly sector economists and results measurement specialists assigned currently to fully integrated units organized along IFC industry groupings. These include: CDI unit for Financial Institutions Group (CDIFI); CDI unit for Infrastructure and Natural Resources (CDIIN); and CDI unit for Manufacturing, Agribusiness, and Services (CDIMA); and CDI unit for Funds and Disruptive Technology team (CDIDF). For each unit, the sector economists are embedded in the respective industry groups to ensure they play a connective tissue role. Still, they are an integral part of CDI and report to CDI managers. The department also includes two additional teams in charge of economic modeling (CDIIM) composed of research economists and the CDI unit for Results Measurement and Corporate Reporting (CDICR) that support all industry groups. In short, the department offers an endto-end support and impact assessments for IFC investments and advisory services, engaging upstream and downstream throughout the project cycle. The Financial Institution Group team (CDIFI) is in charge of implementing CDI mandates and deliverables described above in relation to products including investment and advisory support for microfinance, insurance, loans to small and medium enterprises and women-owned businesses, and low- and medium-income mortgages. This includes fully developing and implementing the ex-ante project assessment framework for investment and advisory projects throughout the project cycle, monitoring and evaluating impact of both investments and advisory projects, help ensure high-quality economic support for IFC FIG teams on strategies and projects, and develop sector economic analyses with a focus on solutions for private sector development. These activities will support operations done by FIG teams to deliver investments that support growing enterprises across emerging markets.
Financial sector operations comprise a significant portion (40%) of IFCs investment operations and make important contributions to financial sector development in client countries. These operations span commercial banking, including specialized product areas such as SME banking; insurance, microfinance, housing finance, trade finance, distressed assets, and capital markets development.
The Department is looking for an Extended-Term Consultant to support the implementation of the Measurement, Research and Evaluation agenda for MSME Finance.

Broadly, the research questions include (but not limited to):
What is the scale and composition of IFC's MSME clients' portfolios?
Are IFC loans, risk-sharing and incentives leading IFC client financial institutions to effectively expand their MSME portfolio?

What are the catalytic effects of IFC's interventions on the broader market?
