Yesterday was my last day at IFC after 26 years in many fulfilling roles around the world. It’s been an honor to work toward sustainable opportunities for people in developing countries. Thank you to all my colleagues clients & partners. Our work is needed now more than ever!

The @IFC_org journey started 65 years ago. Since then, we've become the largest international institution focused on the private sector in #emergingmarkets. How do we do it? What's our latest strategy? Find out in the 1st episode of #IFCExplained:
Pleased to announce @IFC_org has mobilized a €600m package to support South African #COVID19 vaccine maker @aspenpharma, thanks to a partnership w/ @Proparco, @deginvest_int & @DFCgov. We hope to save lives & ensure #Africa is prepared for future crises: https://t.co/M8Zq44j3AW
If we don’t limit global warming and protect people from the climate crisis, we won’t succeed in ending poverty in developing economies. The @WorldBank Group's new #ClimateChange Action Plan puts private companies & investors at the heart of that ambition: https://t.co/p2tJEtcZca
No sustainable economic recovery without a strong private sector. @IFC_org is proud to provide financing & work with G7 development finance institutions & multilateral partners to bring more private investment to #Africa. More on this timely partnership: https://t.co/JvPl6kZtp9
Proud to be together with @SecYellen and @cafreeland at the G7 ministers of finance meeting in London.
For the first time, thanks to the U.S.🇺🇸, Canada 🇨🇦 and the IMF , three women are at the table. Diversity matters: more inclusive discussions lead to better decisions.
Thanks @afrikaverein for the opportunity to join Solomon Adegbie-Quaynor @AfDB_Group and others to share our work creating markets, mobilizing capital and forging partnerships for a green, resilient & inclusive development in Africa .
