How can we unlock more private investment for emerging markets? By creating new financial tools, building investor confidence and opening access to emerging market opportunities. That’s the goal of The World Bank Group’s $510 million collateralized loan obligation (CLO), launched under the Emerging Markets Securitization Program (EMSP). It marks the first step in our originate-to-distribute model designed to mobilize private capital for development. The program unlocks private capital for emerging market borrowers who often lack access to global investors. It creates a scalable way for investors—like asset managers, pension funds and credit insurers—to channel capital into emerging markets to create jobs and support development.   The transaction was listed on the London Stock Exchange LSEG. This brings visibility, transparency, and liquidity, connecting development finance with mainstream investors. Learn more: http://wrld.bg/gZSR50WZyEQ
