Following the launch of our DFI Transparency Tool, George Ingram of Brookings Institution reflects on what we learned from the event and why transparency—the public availability of timely, comparable, and comprehensive information—on development finance could be on the cusp of a march forward.
Watch the launch of our DFI Transparency Tool and discussion of key issues on advancing the transparency of development finance institutions, hosted by the Brookings Institution.
Rob Mosbacher, former President and CEO of OPIC, shares his thoughts on the journey to develop the DFI Transparency Tool, and why it is a practical and significant step for development finance institutions.
As part of our DFI Transparency Initiative we held a webinar presenting the findings from our fifth work stream on the transparency of the Financial Intermediary investments of development finance institutions (DFIs).
Our DFI Transparency Initiative has benefitted from the input of experts from development finance institutions (DFIs) themselves, from civil society organisations, and from private sector investors. Aubrey Hruby has been on the Project Advisory Board since the initiative’s inception and brings a wealth of experience of helping investors understand and enter African capital markets. Aubrey shared her perspective on how better transparency can drive more equitable access to development finance when she sat down with our CEO, Gary Forster.
There is inadequate disclosure of both aggregate and project level financial information across development finance institutions (DFIs), according to new research from our DFI Transparency Initiative. The research examined the transparency of 17 bilateral and multilateral DFIs and found that transparency gaps make it difficult to assess DFIs contribution to market building.
