Québec's Caisse joins the World Bank's Global Infrastructure Facility
The Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec is among a number of banks, government agencies, institutional investors and private equity firms that have joined or may join a new initiative by World Bank Group to leverage more investments in infrastructure in emerging markets and developing economies. The Global Infrastructure Facility (GIF) has been launched as a platform for partnerships to make public-private infrastructure projects viable for new sources of private capital. The World Bank said the GIF is needed to help grow investments in infrastructure in developing countries to US$1 trillion annually through 2020.
