Blended Finance (BF): An Evolving
Concept
A new
CENTRE FOR
new and evolving concept with massive implications for
development finance.
POLICY DIALOGUE
OECD/WEF(2015): "the strategic use of development finance and
philanthropic funds to mobilise private capital flows to emerging and
frontier markets".
Blended finance can be used to mitigate existing and emerging risks
and threats in achieving SDG targets by attracting required
investments and has tremendous potentials to finance the sizeable
SDG investment gap in developing countries.
Estimated SDG financing gap: annually $2.5 trillion globally (UNCTAD),
$1.5 trillion for Asia-Pacific (UN-ESCAP), $145 billion for Bangladesh
(Planning Commission)
The inbuilt de-risking measures enables to attract private capital flow
to finance interventions with unfavourable risk-return investment
profile, which would not be possible in the absence of such
mechanism.
