Description

IFC has embarked on an ambitious new growth strategy (IFC 3.0) to stimulate more investment activity in frontier markets.

This strategy calls for generating our own opportunities by proactively working "Upstream" to create, deepen, and expand markets and to imagine, design and implement investment projects.

It requires taking a systematic approach to understanding the regulatory and sector bottlenecks that prevent the flow of private capital into productive investment in our member countries, and addressing these bottlenecks through World Bank Group engagement on policy reforms and programmatic interventions at the country and sector level.

It also requires capacity to leverage WBG programs and projects to develop our own proactive sector interventions and to imagine and design projects even in the absence of reforms.

At the same time, IFC has pledged to significantly increase its investments in climate-related projects, as a way to further sustainability and inclusiveness in emerging markets.

IFC plans to deliver on these commitments by working with clients to help them develop and implement their own climate strategies and projects.

Key areas of focus include the promotion of low-carbon solutions, including renewable energy, regenerative agriculture, green buildings, decarbonization, circularity, and resource efficiency, amongst others.

Provide research and analysis on relevant sectors, markets and companies, including market mapping, comparator analysis, and sector and company financial projections/models.
Support the identification and assessment of impactful and innovative potential investment opportunities based on country and sector strategies and market creation potential.
Assess earlystage opportunities and substantiate their investment thesis considering their potential for scalability and replicability.
Contribute to the preparation of feasibility studies, impact assessments, technical reports, market assessments, climate notes and implementation plans for new and existing investment opportunities.
Support World Bank and IFC colleagues to analyze sector and regulatory reforms needed to unlock opportunities for private investment.
Extract data from internal and external databases, manipulate and present data for various audiences and update/maintain information in relevant databases.
