IFC in Middle East and North Africa

The Middle East and North Africa is brimming with potential. But long-standing problems like power shortages, youth unemployment, and a lack of access to finance have conspired to hold back economic growth in this region of 350 million.

IFC is helping change that by supporting the region’s private sector, a potentially bountiful source of jobs and innovation. As of June 2018, our long-term investments totaled more than $2 billion and we had 83 active advisory projects. We supported investments in power and renewable energy, helped expand access to finance, and promoted entrepreneurship.
