That’s a wrap for DFCgov at United Nations Water — climate adaptation top of agenda:
✅ signed $10M equity investment #W2AF water access fund
✅ announced $100M for WaterEquity Global Fund
✅ 10+ biz dev mtgs for DFC adaptation window
And so grateful to Secretary Deb Haaland for her leadership.
Great to have worked on the #W2AF water access blended impact fund investment from
Aqua for All side! Looking forward to seeing the #impact of the fund. #SDG6 #impinv #blendedfinance
#UNWaterConference2023 #blendedfinance where is the discussion at? Major issue seems to be how to multiply risk sharing facilities that allow to connect multibillion dollar funds with the small & critical finance needed by village funds. Great session on finance intermediaries
