Blended finance funds and facilities
2020 survey results
Initially launched in 2017, the OECD annual Blended finance Funds and Facilities Survey
compiles and analyses information on collective investment vehicles, one of the primary
channels for blended finance. In 2020, the third annual edition captured 198 vehicles,
representing USD 75 billion assets under management. The survey helps policy makers
and private sector actors better grasp the size and shape of a segment of the blended
finance market. By bringing together data of different development actors that, collectively,
are a significant contributor to sustainable finance, this survey makes an important
contribution to enhancing understanding and transparency. Transparency is increased
through the data collection and analysis, and understanding is increased through the
aggregation of the data that highlight the main investments trends. The quantitative
analysis is complemented by OECD statistics on private finance mobilised by official
development interventions, as well as by information provided by other specialised
institutions. This new evidence confirms trends observed on the broader blended finance
market in terms of priority sectors, geographical coverage and the Sustainable Development
Goals targeted. This year’s edition also explores additional aspects such as investors,
clients and investment instruments, and has a particular focus on gender.
