IDB Invest operates in 26 countries grouped into four regions and three industries (Infrastructure and Energy, Financial Intermediaries, and Corporates).
IDB Invest's shareholders recently approved a $3.5 billion capitalization to support a transformative business model, "Originate to Share," to attract greater private investment that drives development and climate impact in Latin America and the Caribbean.This will enable IDB Invest to nearly double its annual regional investments from approximately $8 billion to $19 billion.
IDB Invest has reorganized its structure to implement this new business model, creating the Financial Solutions, Mobilization, and Asset Sharing (FSM) Department. This department will support the industries and regions department in structuring transactions, mobilizing assets for investors, and managing the equity business.
