investment environment that prevent private sector financing from flowing and can act as "an honest
broker" between commercial interests and policy makers. We can provide the risk mitigation tools,
such as guarantees, risk insurance, and blended finance, to make these kind of investments
attractive.
That's why the Global Infrastructure Facility (GIF) is so important. As a global, collaboration
platform, it facilitates the preparation and structuring of complex infrastructure public-private
partnerships (PPPs) to mobilize private sector and institutional investor capital and to help expand
the pipeline of bankable projects. Eleven of the world's largest asset management, pension and
insurance funds, along with several commercial banks, altogether representing over $12 trillion in
assets under management, will collaborate in this effort. The governments of Australia, Canada,
China, Japan and Singapore, together with MDBs, including the Asian Development Bank, European
Bank for Reconstruction and Development, European Investment Bank and the Inter-American
Development Bank, are also on board.
This sort of innovative, long-term financing will enable the global community to achieve this
ambitious development agenda. If we want to see significant change by 2030 -- a more equitable
world free of poverty -- long-term finance for infrastructure is the right place to start.
