Challenges in Implementation
IFC works in emerging and frontier markets Investment climate is often difficult – e.g., poor
regulatory, governance or legal structures to support private sector enterprise
To invest successfully, IFC needs committed sponsors and a comprehensive due-diligence of the risks
To invest sustainably, IFC needs to ensure that development outcomes are maximized
