Our solutions

Our solutions support projects in overcoming financial, technical and socio-environmental challenges. Co-investing with our partners, we catalyse blended finance opportunities for commercial and private investors. In parallel, PIDG’s implementation, safety and impact teams raise standards and practices within the project team.

PIDG’s solutions include: 

• Technical assistance for bridging funding gaps and maximising project impact 

• Project development and equity for early-stage and growth-stage projects 

• Debt solutions for raising and deploying stable, long-term commercial debt 

• Guarantees for local currency guarantees that reduce financial risk for domestic and international investors corporations that want to issue bonds 

• Credit enhancement facilities established to mobilise local capital into businesses  

We act as a catalyst, mobilising blended finance to flow to where it is needed. By deploying concessional capital in a way that addresses project risk, we enable domestic and international investors deploy many multiples of that capital into infrastructure projects in Africa and Asia. 

Since our founding in 2002, we have  

• Deployed USD 1.9bn in official development assistance 

• Which has been deployed and recycled into USD 5.2bn in investment commitments.  

• These have led to USD 40bn in investment in PIDG projects, with almost half of that amount coming from the private sector.  

Working throughout the project lifecycle, we have developed sustainable projects, built local capacity and transformed markets, creating a deep and lasting impact.
