B ANKABILITY THROUGH THE LENS OF TRANSPARENCY

LATIN AMERICAN infrastructure investment has historically attracted significant private capital, making up over 40% of total investment in the region. However, recent years have seen a decline due to corruption investigations, economic slowdowns, and political instability. The region's GDP allocation to infrastructure (2.8%) trails East Asia and the Pacific (5.8%), widening the funding gap. To close this gap, private investment must be encouraged through transparency reforms, anti-corruption measures, and improved governance. Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, and Chile are the primary markets, with transportation and energy being key sectors. MDBs like the IDB offer tools to mitigate risks, such as B-bonds and Total Credit Guarantees, to support bankable projects. Sustainability is increasingly viewed as a critical factor that reduces governance risks, improves project viability, and aligns with global initiatives. Going forward, continued reform efforts and transparent project pipelines will be crucial to attract investment and stimulate economic growth.
