In 2015, the Office of Evaluation and Oversight conducted an evaluation of the financial intermediary operations of the Inter-American Development Bank Group. The evaluation included an examination of other development finance institutions (DFIs) working with FIs in Latin America and the Caribbean to better understand the different strategies and operational approaches. This report summarizes the findings gathered from interviews and desk reviews of the activities of nine DFIs to generate insights on financing trends and best practices, with the aim of informing the future operations of IDBG and other DFIs.
