Leveraging Financial Markets for Development: How KfW Revolutionized Development Finance: Executive Politics and Governance

Autor Peter Volberding
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2021
This book investigates how development institutions created and promoted marketized development financial instruments to increase the speed and scope of assistance by leveraging private financial markets for development objectives. To attract private investors, donor governments agreed to bear the risk in these new instruments in order to mobilize investment during times of political crisis. In particular, this book contends that Germany’s KfW played an outsized role in the development of these new financial instruments, particularly in microfinance banks and structured funds, as KfW’s unique institutional attributes and strong political support from the German government at critical junctures fostered financial innovation. Using over 70 interviews and a cache of newly released archival materials, this books documents how KfW and other development institutions created and promoted these marketized development financial instruments, and how they have become a pillar of modern development policy.

Caracteristici

Argues that development institutions, and most notably Germany’s KfW, have been at the forefront of integrating development policy with private financial markets Develops a synthesized framework to understand why development institutions have mobilized private finance, and why donor governments have been willing to absorb the risk in new financial instruments Provides the only independent scholarship of KfW and its role in global development finance, and documents other under-researched areas within development, including national development banks and World Bank-sponsored development finance companies
