Economic growth in East Asia and the Pacific has lifted millions out of poverty over the past decade. Yet more than 80 million still struggle on less than $2 a day—and slowing growth in the region is making it harder for them to escape poverty.
Supporting inclusive growth is one of IFC’s priorities in the region—where our commitments totaled $5.2 billion in FY16, including $2.9 billion mobilized from other investors. Our clients provided employment for more than 500,000 people, provided health care for nearly 570,000 patients, and generated power for 13 million people in the region.
