The International Finance Corporation (IFC) – a member of the World Bank Group – is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. It works in more than 100 developing countries, using capital, mobilization capacity, expertise, and influence to create jobs and raise living standards for people.
With SECO’s support, IFC’s Vietnam Supply Chain Finance Development Phase 1 (2018-24) introduced supply chain finance (SCF) through regulatory support, advisory work with commercial banks, and capacity building for local banks, SMEs, and anchors.
