REF 180915 Preface This Primer outlines the significant opportunity that Blended Finance presents for public-private cooperation to support international development efforts. There is a huge, and largely untapped, potential for public, philanthropic and private actors to work together towards win-win-win solutions: wins for private investors, as they make an attractive return on their capital; wins for public and philanthropic providers, as they make their limited dollars go further; and most importantly, wins for people in developing countries as more funds are channeled to emerging and frontier markets, in the right way, to help transform economies, societies, and lives. The development challenges of the 21st century remain vast. Poverty has fallen, and will continue to do so, but developing economies will need to be transformed if they are to ensure long-term development. The Richard Samans needs for infrastructure, health, education, agriculture, and other development challenges loom large. Managing Director and Member of the The good news is that there is enough money to go around. Capital markets are growing, and frontier and Managing Board emerging markets are particularly attractive. Private investment into developing countries has been growing World Economic at much faster rates than development funding, and the potential to do more is huge. But to realize this Forum potential, key bottlenecks which prevent private investors targeting the sectors and countries in which they are needed most must be addressed. This new context creates incredible new and exciting opportunities for collaboration. Through Blended Finance, development finance and philanthropic funders can help to address development challenges, ensuring that private investors can identify and support key investment opportunities in the developing world. By guaranteeing investments, development finance and philanthropic funders can help to reduce risk.

By providing technical assistance, they can support the development of strategic projects and help improve the investment climate in key markets. Erik Solheim To help development finance and philanthropic organizations to seize these opportunities, this Primer Chair, Development outlines the Blended Finance approach, clarifies the key concepts, and explains the benefits such Assistance approaches can bring.

As the previous report “Growth Within” (2015) pointed out the value chains mobility, building and food- representing 60 percent of the average EU household budget and 80 percent of resource consumption - could contribute significantly to Europe’s overall economic performance and welfare by adapting a restorative and regenerative economic system. Circular mobility, building environment and circular food systems offer ground-breaking, attractive innovation and investment opportunities, and the EU is uniquely placed to exploit these. This comes at a time when the EU is in great need of industrial renewal and attractive investment opportunities. Circular economic investments offer resilience and transformation of those assets that otherwise might face being stranded or becoming redundant. However, circular economy investment opportunities have remained unrealized until now. I am therefore very pleased with the A European transition would also have insights that this report “Achieving impact far beyond its borders: it could Growth Within” gives in ten attractive create de facto global standards for circular innovation and investment product design and material choices, themes , totaling €320 billion through and provide other world regions with a to 2025: much-needed blueprint.
