La semana pasada el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo y Economist Impact lanzó una nueva edición del #Infrascopio. Esta herramienta analiza las fortalezas y debilidades de las Asociaciones Público-Privadas (#APPs, #PPPs) en América Latina y el Caribe con base en más de 100 indicadores en áreas que van desde el financiamiento hasta el manejo de riesgo y regulaciones. ALC ha sido la región en desarrollo que más atraido inversiones con APPs. Según nuestras estimaciones los países de América Latina y el Caribe necesitan invertir más de $250.000 millones al año para cerrar las brechas de infraestructura sostenible. Esto sólo se puede hacer de la mano del sector privado. Brasil, Chile y Perú están bien posicionados, pero Ecuador, Paraguay y Trinidad y Tobago han tenido avances importantes. Belice y Barbados han codificado políticas y guías para adquisiciones por primera vez — un paso importante para países pequeños. Pronto la herramienta incluirá un piloto para gobiernos subnacionales en Brasil. Mis felicitaciones al equipo técnico del BID y Economist Impact que trabajaron en esta nueva edición de la herramienta. Acá lo pueden consultar https://lnkd.in/efcQ_Jrg James P.

  #Impact investing meets #journalism - MDIF takes a unique approach to safeguarding #media freedom and #diversity in times of democratic decline, reports the German #b2b media for foundations, DIE STIFTUNG.   Maribel Königer represents the ERSTE Foundation, which is invested in the MDIF-initiated blended #capital fund Pluralis: "Thanks to the pluralistic ownership structure of this blended capital fund, there is a distance between shareholders and the media companies." Pluralis was founded to maintain media diversity, so fact-based reporting is crucial, not a particular #editorial line. ’‘The approach has always been to go into countries where authoritarian tendencies are establishing themselves and putting the media under pressure.’ - This is how Max von Abendroth describes the MDIF's approach in this article. ‘If anti-democratic governments are in power in more and more countries, this also has drastic consequences for us [in #Germany]. The idea that German #democracy is only being shaped here at home is too short-sighted. Full article 👇   https://lnkd.in/etnYmrsE
