    The sixth session of the Fisheries and Resources Monitoring System (FIRMS) Technical Working Group (TWG6) jointly with the third External Advisory Board (EAB) Technical Working Group (TWG3) of the BlueBRIDGE European-funded project offered the opportunity to present and discuss the on-going and the future activities of the Global Record of Stocks and Fisheries (GRSF) among FIRMS, BlueBRIDGE and External Advisory Board partners. GRSF was created as a Virtual Research Environment (VRE) during the BlueBRIDGE project to offer: 1) increased dissemination and monitoring of stocks and fisheries information, including in support to the Sustainable Development Goal Indicator 14.4.1“Proportion of fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels” of 2030 UN Agenda for Sustainable Development (A/RES/71/313), 2) support to traceability needs including catch documentation schemes, ecolabelling schemes, food safety, and sustainable fisheries. A business plan is being elaborated to ensure its long-term exploitation and development. The basis of this business plan is a proposal by FIRMS during its 10th FIRMS Steering Committee (FSC10) to take over the ownership of the GRSF VRE for its sustainable maintenance and development, however with some concerns.

Public finance does not have sufficient resources to fill this gap, while for developing nations, the private sector is responsible for around 90% of jobs, 60% of investments, most exports, 80% of government revenues and a growing share of essential services, inventions and innovations (World Bank 2019). Blended finance can be used effectively in a number of situations so as to involve in the private sector.
