Risk mitigation approaches to mobilise investment to developing countries
Room: BB1 Marie and Irene Curie
Description
The OECD, Moody’s and Convergence will host a workshop, in coordination with the THK Practices and Mobilisation Working Groups, dedicated to blended finance (innovative finance) approaches to mitigate risk of investing in developing countries to mobilise private investment. The session is designed for blended finance practitioners from development agencies, philanthropic foundations, MDBs/DFIs and private sector.
The session includes three segments: (1) Convergence and OECD to profile need to mobilise and history of actual projects in the past decade, (2) Moody’s will present and profile the issuers/issuances it has rated and (iii) a collaborative workshop with active participation. The workshop will lead to the research and publication of two reports in March 2020: Moody’s Sector In-Depth Repot and Convergence Blended Finance Report.
