IFC has embarked on an ambitious new growth strategy (IFC 3.0) to develop business and stimulate more investment activity. IFC engages upstream in key strategic areas to create opportunities and support the development of bankable high impact projects that solve countries' development challenges. IFC's upstream activities consist of pre-investment work that lays the foundation for future transactions, often in collaboration with other institutions within the WBG, government institutions, other international institutions, and private sector partners. By working upstream, IFC helps create bankable projects in challenging markets and sectors. IFC targets markets and sectors with significant gaps and works across the WBG to help craft policy and regulatory conditions that can create the necessary enabling environment as well as originate private sector solutions and develop bankable projects as sector policy reforms emerge. Once an opportunity with a clear line sight for an investment is produced, IFC assesses its feasibility, improves its bankability, and the project is then subject to the due diligence process before finally IFC can finance the project that delivers high impact in people's lives.
