Synopsis (short abstract) FAO’s Investment Centre provides a wide range of investment support services to developing and transition countries. This second annual review shines a light on the work of the Investment Centre and its partners –the international financing institutions - carried out in 2018 to increase the volume and quality of investments in food security, nutrition, agriculture and rural development. During that year, the Centre supported investment-related policy studies and processes to increase policy dialogue and contributed to the design, technical assistance, supervision or evaluation of investment projects in 116 countries. It increasingly linked both its policy work with investment support to scale up impact. And it promoted greater knowledge sharing and innovation, while also helping to strengthen the capacity of people and institutions to make better investment decisions. The Investment Centre continues to remain relevant by adapting its skills and expertise to keep pace with a constantly evolving investment landscape and fast-changing world.

    Ambitious development agenda calls for extraordinary efforts – efforts that must be financed. Public funding through Official Development Assistance alone will never be enough. Now more than ever we need to mobilize private investment for development and explore innovative ways to make sure finances reach where they are needed most. Partnerships, solidarity and a willingness to come together across regions, countries and sectors are key for delivering on the 2030 Agenda. This is a 1 page summary of the FAO Investment Centre Annual Review 2018.

    Also available in:
    Sustainable food systems are key to tackling our most pressing challenges – from ending hunger and poverty to preserving the health and well-being of people and the planet. Making food systems more sustainable is not just about reducing carbon footprints, but also about creating jobs, reducing inequalities, improving efficiencies along supply chains and strengthening people’s ability to cope with climate change. This short summary highlights the achievements for FAO Investment Centre in 2019. The FAO Investment Centre supports the Organization’s members to design and implement good quality public investment operations that improve food security, natural resource management and climate resilience. At the same time, it plays a strategic role in promoting a conductive environment for private investment by providing targeted technical assistance and advisory services to blended finance operations and impact funds.
