IFC 2006 Annual Report Summary

Core Content

The International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, is the largest multilateral provider of financing for private sector development in developing countries. Established in 1956, IFC has been instrumental in promoting sustainable private sector investment, reducing poverty, and improving people's lives globally.

Main Points

Mission and Impact: IFC's mission is to promote sustainable private sector investment in developing countries. Over the past 50 years, it has committed more than $56 billion in its own funds and mobilized an additional $25 billion in syndications for 3,531 companies in 140 developing countries.
Financial Performance: In FY06, IFC made investment commitments of $6.7 billion for its own account and mobilized $1.6 billion through syndicated loans, totaling $8.3 billion. The Corporation has consistently made a profit for 50 years, with strong financial results in FY06.
Technical Assistance: IFC provided over $1 billion in technical assistance and advisory services in FY06, focusing on improving investment climates and supporting private sector development. About 40% of project funding was allocated to Sub-Saharan Africa.
Strategic Focus: IFC has increasingly concentrated its investments and technical assistance in frontier countries—low-income or high-risk nations. These countries accounted for a significant share of IFC's investments, and the Corporation's TAAS in these regions was about four times the share of foreign direct investment.
Global Reach: IFC's investments span 112 countries, with the largest exposures in the Russian Federation, Brazil, China, India, Turkey, Mexico, and Argentina. The Corporation's portfolio includes 1,368 companies.
Financial Ratings: IFC holds AAA/Aaa ratings from Standard & Poor's and Moody's, with a stable outlook, reflecting its strong financial position and creditworthiness.
Strategic Goals: IFC's long-term strategy includes a 50% growth in investment commitments over three years, along with significant growth in technical assistance. The strategy focuses on five pillars: frontier markets, long-term relationships with global companies, environmental and social sustainability, addressing constraints in infrastructure, health, and education, and developing local financial markets.
Operational Growth: IFC's investment commitments grew by nearly 25% in FY06, and its staff increased by a quarter. The Corporation also expanded its activities in high-risk and low-income areas, with a notable increase in investments in Sub-Saharan Africa and SMEs.
Development Outcomes: IFC's investments contributed to the provision of healthcare to 2.4 million patients, education to 320,000 students, and access to phone services for 80 million people since 1996. Additionally, investments in oil, gas, and mining companies generated $4.4 billion in government revenues and created 50,000 jobs.
Leadership and Governance: The IFC Board of Directors approved key investments and maintained close oversight of the Corporation's strategy. The Board also supported IFC's efforts to improve development impact and enhance its operational and strategic performance.
