Catalytic capital, made more accessible

The Catalytic Capital Repository (Repository) is a free, publicly available platform that helps financial institutions identify catalytic offerings that help mobilize private sector capital into emerging markets and developing economies.

Increasing transparency in blended finance

For many transactions in emerging markets and developing economies, the right concessional, risk-sharing, or grant-based support can be the difference between a viable transaction and one that does not move forward. However, it can be challenging for financial institutions to identify relevant catalytic capital offerings that could make their transaction a success.

The Repository brings comparable information on these offerings together in one place.

CCR helps users understand:

→Which organizations currently provide catalytic capital and risk-mitigation instruments for use by private sector finance

→Available catalytic offerings, their scope, and how to access them

Catalytic offerings include:

Concessional debt
Concessional equity
Guarantees (via the GGG Guarantee Directory)
Grants linked to an investment vehicle

The Catalytic Capital Repository is for:

Private sector financial institutions seeking support for transactions

Project developers seeking to understand eligibility requirements and application pathways

Providers of catalytic capital aiming to increase visibility, benchmark offerings, and coordinate effectively
