No participation fee CHF – Open to public
Following the strong foundation laid in Webinar 1, “Why National Infrastructure Financing Institutions Matter”, we now turn to the practical question: How do governments design credible, commercially disciplined National Infrastructure Financing Institutions?
As part of WAPPP’s 2026 global theme on National Infrastructure Financing Institutions (NIFIs), Webinar 2 moves the discussion from strategic rationale to institutional implementation.
Around the world, governments are establishing development banks, infrastructure funds, and hybrid financing vehicles to mobilize long-term capital beyond annual budget cycles. But institutional form alone does not ensure impact.
This session will explore:
· What distinguishes development bank–type institutions from fund-based and hybrid models
· How mandate clarity and governance safeguards shape institutional credibility
· What capitalization strategies signal seriousness to private and institutional investors
· How design choices influence long-term sustainability and market confidence
The session will examine how governments move from conceptual models to durable, investable institutions capable of crowding in capital at scale.
