Innovative Finance to Scale Impact
Notes de l’épisode
Traditional development funding is under pressure even as the need for investment in healthcare, water, energy access and other basic services remains high. Can innovative finance help draw more private capital into these areas? On this week’s episode of the Sustainability Currents podcast, John Simon, co-founder and managing partner of Total Impact Capital, joins Shaheen Contractor, Bloomberg Intelligence senior sustainable finance research analyst, to explore how new financing structures can pool capital, manage risk and attract investors to projects that can be difficult to fund. They discuss the role of concessional capital and technical assistance, where these structures work — and where they don’t. The conversation also examines how the investor base is changing and what could come next for impact finance.
