As global requirements evolve, Proparco has published the 43rd edition of its Private Sector & Development magazine, focused on the action of European development finance institutions (DFIs).
«In a world dominated by economic uncertainty, climate challenges and serious geopolitical tensions, European development finance institutions (DFIs) need to adapt. They are facing an uncertain geostrategic context that challenges their priorities, activity and modus operandi.
With the 4th International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) due to be held in Seville in a few weeks' time – which should serve as a reminder of the growing role that the private sector needs to play in achieving the SDGs - European DFIs need to adapt their business model to combine solutions to global challenges, outreach initiatives and support for European priorities more effectively.
Through analysis and feedback, this issue highlights the levers for action available to these strategic stakeholders, who invest over €12 billion a year in the private sector in emerging countries.
This issue was prepared in collaboration with the association of European Development Finance Institutions (EDFI).»
