Summary
The Environmental and Social Review Procedures (ESRP) Manual is a key resource to guide IFC Project Teams in conducting the review of environmental and social (E&S) risks throughout the lifecycle of IFC’s projects, covering direct investments (DI), financial intermediary (FI) investments, and upstream and advisory projects.
The Manual reflects the current organizational framework, including the integration of E&S risk management into IFC’s frontline operations under the regional vice-presidencies. An independent E&S Policy and Risk department provides a dedicated “second line of defense” risk management function.
The ESRP Manual reinforces IFC’s commitment to maintaining high standards in E&S risk management and supporting sustainable development across its global operations.
