IFC is a leader in the Telecoms, Media, and Technology (TMT) sector in emerging markets across the globe. Since 2010, IFC has committed and mobilized over $6 billion for TMT projects.

We focus on supporting mobile network operators—mainly in challenging and less developed markets where the digital divide hinders development. We also finance digital infrastructure—broadband networks, telecommunications towers, and data centers—critical enablers of the digital economy.

IFC’s financing instruments in this space include a broad range of products—including loans, equity, mobilization, and project finance—all of which benefit from IFC’s substantial industry and structuring expertise.
