IFC is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in developing countries. As part of its mission to advance economic development, create jobs and improve the lives of people, the Economics and Market Research Department is conducting a comprehensive study to deepen the understanding of private investments across both emerging and developed markets.
The focus is on bridging the gap between investors and investment opportunities in markets ranging from developed economies to rapidly growing emerging regions.
This study seeks insights from experienced investors with a global perspective who actively invest in dynamic markets, to identify proven strategies and challenges investors face when navigating these diverse landscapes.
We are also collecting data from startups to develop a dataset that characterizes the entrepreneurial ecosystem in emerging markets. This dataset aims to foster connections between startups and investors.
