May 11, 2020 | By Todd Alexander | Sarah Devine | Kenneth Hansen

We talked to Tony Bakels, director of credit and special operations at FMO, Georgina Baker, vice president for Latin America, the Caribbean, Europe and Central Asia at the International Finance Corporation, Koffi Klousseh, director of project development for Africa50, Luke Lindberg, senior vice president of external engagement for the US Export-Import Bank, Hristo Stovkov, head of growth capital and innovation finance for the European Investment Bank, and Tracey Webb, vice president for structured finance and insurance at the US International Development Finance Corporation (formerly known as OPIC).
