Moderator:
Caitlin MacLean, Associate Director, Financial Innovations Labs, Milken Institute. Meeting the goals of global development, from improved health care to increased access to capital, requires a combination of aid and investment. Yet in frontier markets, public-sector funding has been limited and not entirely effective, while the private sector has been hesitant to engage. To overcome these constraints and attract a wider spectrum of investors, innovative models have been developed that build ties with foundations, governments, large financial institutions and corporations. From public-private investment funds to credit enhancements and donor-driven pull mechanisms, these new approaches can help to bridge funding gaps and strengthen local markets. The panel will present investment-led strategies that generate both social and financial returns while stabilizing the communities where investors have assets at work.
