the nearby courses then enchanting more funding for these interpreters on
00:00:10
the ground that doing the work and taking the risk uh
00:00:14

00:00:17
like to welcome uh we have we're joined by yeah sarah bell

00:00:53
to ask the tough questions on how can we channel more funding on the as they do so
00:00:57
i i think it's a there is working for the well i think you'll never directly for this is that i'm not one of the well
00:01:04
uh and yeah thank you very much for coming here and we have sent
00:01:11
it a lot about it that yes perfect so a set it on that
00:01:16
a second impact finance it's one of the pioneers in the area
00:01:20
and is actually working on doing direct investments for the interpreters
00:01:24
underground so welcome cedric and last but not least we have
00:01:31
more than that we heard or read a l. c. will
00:01:33
also join the panel uh to explore some of these opportunities
00:01:40
ah
00:01:43
if
00:01:46
yeah
00:01:47
okay that's this work yes perfect
00:01:51
so oh um
00:01:55
we recently had a building bridges set and uh all week
00:02:00
it's more than an events it's over a uh almost like
00:02:04
seventy seven events bringing the eco system together and we're we heard a lot about
00:02:11
the difference but unit is challenges how we should mitigate risk how we should have
00:02:15
better frameworks et cetera um i would like to ask you katie
00:02:20
is there something it doesn't waste iverson adverse nuts that makes us
00:02:25
uh for see some of the real opportunities that are on
00:02:28
the ground and yeah what do you see are the opportunities and
00:02:33
what do you think is some like homework for all of us coming up for for the next building bridges
00:02:38
sure so um i i don't know how public this is although it will be very soon
00:02:43
the next building bridges is going to be october thirty six so it's coming up
00:02:48
pretty quickly the copper bands will launch in mid march so if you're interested in
00:02:52
bringing in conversation forward you absolutely can in terms of i mean to me the
00:02:58
opportunities are quite and less but also the
00:03:02
risks are very high and many of you
00:03:06
probably saw that this week the i. p. c. c. launched its new report and the message
00:03:12
is very clear we have a window but the window is closing quickly and we must act
00:03:17
so for me i think that be opportunities are
00:03:22
large but the impetus for action is even larger
00:03:26
what we're definitely seeing it building bridges is that the communities are still speaking different languages
00:03:32
but there's a lot more willingness to come together and that's the first thing we need so that's that's great but
00:03:39
for me what's so important is that all of these t. actors
00:03:43
come to the table recognising what it is that they can bring
00:03:49
and i mean we all live in a capitalistic society i
00:03:53
think most of us here are engaging finance so to degree
00:03:58
we believe in the role of capital but markets are not
00:04:02
acts of god markets are acts of policy and this is where governments in the work you and if he's
00:04:08
doing with governments or other you and and these are
00:04:10
so crucial for me it's about businesses creating businesses that
00:04:16
have that pay all their costs on society and haven't had a positive impact and so i think the work
00:04:22
we still have to do is ensuring that we do
00:04:25
find those funding models uh but we also match that with
00:04:29
what the other actors in society can do we have strong policy frameworks
00:04:33
and governance we have an active civil society community that is holding everyone accountable
00:04:39
and then of course with the finance industry that we make those models are
00:04:43
available and that they are also innovative
00:04:48
and and meet the needs of d.'s very
00:04:51
interesting businesses that already exist um and we can get into some of the models that are
00:04:56
missing but for me that that's really what building bridges about where the work needs to be done
00:05:03
oh that's right yes yeah perfect um sarah and your uni p. works across the world and you
00:05:12
we do work with with some concrete initiatives but also with with policy
00:05:16
um there is yeah like what i wanted to be in but katie was was talking about i wanna see like what do
00:05:22
you see what is urgent currently in your work and uh and we do feel that they you have a role to kind of
00:05:30
turn the needle and uh and step up uh your game in
00:05:34
the policy work and supporting uh this access to finance to the entrepreneurs
00:05:39
ah thank you very much i i think just to follow up on what can
00:05:44
he said i think we need to continue beating the drum that it's about opportunities
00:05:52
and it's not it's not about to financing gap because we're not
00:05:55
running out of money money's out here so it's really an issue for
00:05:59
freezing for me and and by the way we studied all that
00:06:02
work six years ago ah the three of us talking about advocacy convincing
00:06:08
the different players to work together so we we just need to
00:06:12
continue that the first thing we need to highlight the fact that
00:06:17
the argument in indeed opportunities to a couple of years ago they were so reports that stated bad
00:06:24
investing in haiti g. of the the let's say the market represented
00:06:28
by the a. c. g. where word something like twelve tray you trillion
00:06:32
so like a huge opportunities i'm pretty sure that market has grown
00:06:37
in the last five years so it's not about to financing gap
00:06:41
it's more about the market failure so how do we fix that and um
00:06:46
they're they're different approaches that obviously un
00:06:50
t. v.s um is approaching which partners
00:06:54
and like government like uh impact had so
00:06:58
the first thing is definitely market intelligence having more insight on the different markets
00:07:05
where investing is gonna make is gonna really moving you don't it make a difference
00:07:11
so it doesn't really mention v. a. c. g. um invest amounts
00:07:16
we've got about twenty maps have that are available what we'll we'll lights these fad
00:07:24
you know be young white we consider s. market intelligence like you know the pipeline um
00:07:31
what we rely sees that there are two things one we really need
00:07:35
to bring again it separately see we really need to bring successful example
00:07:40
so that we really convenes uh the entire community to
00:07:44
go along back rolled between really need also to identify
00:07:50
weaving the different low collective systemic um i would
00:07:54
say the players want again changers and they're all fine
00:07:59
more at an intermediary level in became really connected different
00:08:04
players in convincing investors so that's typically the work that
00:08:08
we're doing be young the pipeline weaving follows investments um
00:08:14
i think we also need in that switching to be
00:08:18
stealing from but uh in entire work on standards and
00:08:22
obviously we're not the only one we need to work
00:08:25
on the integrity each of what's e. s. p. g. meeting
00:08:30
um so that we can really prove basically facts um the quality of investment
00:08:37
that's gonna be really like the long term vision that that's gonna trigger investment
00:08:42
on the long run because we will be yeah come to be which um
00:08:47
and then i i faint invites work which is not new we'd silver work year round
00:08:53
not only building pipeline but what accelerate is doing
00:08:56
like incubation in what you entities doing which is more
00:09:02
yeah it kind of it's it's the young certification it's
00:09:05
really making sure that we work with impress with investors
00:09:10
so that we were trying to see we build the capacity of investors into different players in
00:09:15
we rented the qualities of a voice investment so that there truly align on v. s. t. g.
00:09:23
was points was free points would be really far swear the priority
00:09:28
thank you so uh like i mentioned uh before at the building bridges we heard a lot
00:09:33
about the different challenges and we did start speaking about opportunities as well but i wanted to
00:09:38
move to to cedric who you are you have some a
00:09:40
lot of experience investing directly in in some of the entrepreneurs
00:09:44
do you wanna share uh maybe you know what are some of the challenges that having concept of what are
00:09:50
you seeing that a potentially missed opportunities and what could
00:09:53
be opportunities for the journey like a system moving forward in
00:09:57
in in doing this type of direct investments or yeah what are the sheets that you feel it could turn the needle i think
00:10:07
if the well uh uh
00:10:11
but um you know to come on what has been said the mobile ruby bridges obviously it's all about uh what kind of
00:10:19
bridge bill you for the link the it's the only need a
00:10:25
lot of impressions in print but then at the level of the enterprises
00:10:31
and what what local in i think with the uh in some some of the the tool
00:10:37
twenty two d. of the proposals the theme interval of the
00:10:43
what i really should look that is looking at this stage
00:10:48
use of course it's good to do too but it's but it's not enough to what
00:10:54
goes on in the still minutes and then when it looks at the at the company
00:10:59
visit one it's use abuse the village shiny the
00:11:05
still love is digits and and potentially impact but it also means
00:11:09
in the more usual function do tool that the the good management
00:11:15
and that's not given it's really hard and the one that we more it's a simple
00:11:20
ponders then those the investors looking up into places it's really hard to build the company
00:11:27
or maybe it's not that ought to build it but it's hard to sustain it's it's real important what's so the
00:11:35
but what what we look at this stage use real obvious this capacity
00:11:40
to doesn't differ told projects but also the deposit to follow them up
00:11:45
you were mentioning for them up in terms of its g. due to lose to know
00:11:51
and it's important for them to be able to to leverage the most in terms of impact
00:11:57
but also in terms of capacity and that's the management tools lexus to markets which is good for the good
00:12:05
but it it's not that good if you can much so it's still the for example the the good clothes
00:12:13
the real if you have a lot of problems by the german good dutch inducements uh
00:12:19
just do that i know that our help in exporters from developing country to get into
00:12:26
the important markets how what presents of the
00:12:30
speech one german of those between the north american
00:12:34
it's always different you have to pitch in different you love to the
00:12:39
one that eventually different ports lived without tools of this is not given
00:12:45
how to access to the market and the uh this that should lose if
00:12:49
one works a little it's a this pushy as you said because then it's
00:12:55
the to the whole from small but the book and it's not only
00:13:01
about of one and the more it's about building bridges you can not
00:13:08
the invests sure not sure that the management is good enough on the
00:13:13
verge comparable then it's your mutual that there is a market that you can
00:13:19
uh into or request within bulldog e. busied elements and uh
00:13:25
when we see that use in the love of the phone
00:13:29
the lot told who owns the button there's really not too small
00:13:38
but then but since i started i've always been pushed for
00:13:42
and obviously there was one point will that be enough but it's
00:13:46
the about just one more to which was my first into the
00:13:51
has been able to reach the enough but then the then it will be read from the from
00:13:57
the offices looked to be a little bit to transform the whole if so i never good enough to
00:14:07
and and i think it's the same for for two printers sweets it's always a challenge in the
00:14:12
form of is crucial in israel investor can help
00:14:16
them at one point people with money rooms shouldn't support
00:14:21
the uh this with troops baptismal
00:14:27
thank you i mean i definitely something but the entrepreneurs are here in either you you're not you
00:14:32
you're too small basically here in in geneva and and maybe i'm katie you
00:14:36
want to share a little bit about that what you have weakness this kind of
00:14:40
get our markets in the missing middle and and i wanna bring the conversation on
00:14:45
now the focus was on you know we need to build the capacity the management et cetera the entrepreneurs
00:14:51
but there is there is and and made thing about all i've cute pipeline excess think
00:14:56
and that's kind of what i wanted to explore this kind of is this a missed opportunity
00:15:01
and how can we as an eco system uh what are the changes that you need to happen for this
00:15:06
this this side a connection to happen between uh the financing and the entrepreneurs
00:15:12
that on the ground doing amazing work already and have their books in order so
00:15:16
yeah sure i mean i think dismissing middle issue it it
00:15:20
gets brought up a lot because there's pretty solid micro finance models
00:15:25
and then of course the large investment models um if you talk
00:15:29
to a a big bank they'll say you know twenty five million
00:15:32
anything less than that investment directly into a company is just a not even worth the due diligence cost i have
00:15:38
to do so there's obviously a huge missing middle i
00:15:42
think would act building bridges were trying to think about which
00:15:46
um solutions that can be collaborative can affect this and i'm not sure this i think
00:15:52
this would get to some of that missing middle um there's there's the safety initiative which
00:15:57
and has been launched by the swiss which is going to be spending for
00:16:02
interesting new innovation models in financing so if you have an interesting idea for
00:16:07
find or something that's gonna take some up front work to get built and
00:16:12
you don't have the capital for that we can hope to find that innovation
00:16:15
but maybe just another example of something we're working on it building bridges is around the quality so
00:16:20
uh one of our colleagues at credit suisse came to me and he's very passionate about impact instead
00:16:26
my problem is i know what these amazing impact funds probably like said
00:16:29
relaxed but i can only offer them to my qualified investors which is
00:16:34
three percent of investors roughly a quarter of capital back up a pretty
00:16:39
small amount what if we could pioneer in switzerland and liquidity facility that
00:16:44
would create a media the quality and allows them to offer this to
00:16:48
retail investors that could open up so much more capital in the market
00:16:53
for these impact products that are very sound that are maybe a bit
00:16:57
smaller or maybe too big in some cases but you know our bit smaller
00:17:01
but that then we could make that available to our retail investors in so this is now something that we're
00:17:07
looking at it would take a lot of capital because you need to be able to allow for that liquidity
00:17:11
but this could be something that solves a market failure if we were able to get off the ground so
00:17:16
this is typically the type of innovation we're looking active to fill that missing middle but also other market failures
00:17:22
right so uh katie started uh the panel by talking about the urgency and about the next
00:17:29
building bridges coming up in october i would like to to hear uh from the panelists they'll what
00:17:36
what is our homework between now and october we we know that we need to move fast we need to be innovative um
00:17:42
yes and what do you how do you imagine like the the homework for all of us but also specifically
00:17:48
for your own organisation what you are you are ready to take on
00:17:52
to to a bridge this gap something morgan iowa bring this to you
00:17:58
and some and i think we uh working at a gravity
00:18:01
so we're really trying to make building between the different axes
00:18:05
and so what we think a rule could be is
00:18:08
really to bring people together and warm is remind and that's
00:18:13
you're better if you're together if you try to do all pilots you will thing and don't you don't really have the scale
00:18:18
it's always what we try to encourage our clients into some start small with a small pilots bring to
00:18:24
people with you try to to be good correlation in that's the way you can reach a because kate
00:18:32
thank you uh cedric what's what's your commitment going forward by way
00:18:36
do you think there is a potential for you to uh yeah
00:18:40
bring this agenda even yet pioneering it even further
00:18:45
well this was you say it's not a lot of but playing with huge
00:18:48
but playing than it does increase the weather's been increased because of called the tremendously
00:18:54
sure well uh you to tap into entrepreneurs refinance the
00:19:04
thank you do feel that there is like some lessons learned that you can share to others that i maybe wanting
00:19:09
to get into the investment field but i may be scared of doing so because they feel they don't have enough expertise
00:19:14
in the developing mark to market how to engage with entrepreneurs you feel that there is there is work
00:19:19
to be done there as well to get more people like you enough coming up from this amazing eco system
00:19:26
the normal uh this what is done in the event like
00:19:30
building bridges is exactly what what we need to uh yeah
00:19:35
joining with the remark of the solar on the on the standards the uh this last year
00:19:42
uh also all the the drop in the huge that forward with use g.
00:19:48
that's good will lose its twenty volts institute was twenty five you were going to use just waltz with some
00:19:56
we're able to do that for step in that this was
00:20:00
looks wouldn't work salutes to the mixed limits challenge would be to
00:20:07
to use the will to speak about loses digits with jitters but or a a
00:20:15
if you're a a for real forward in that or not
00:20:19
only speaking to states but as we can to companies uh uh
00:20:27
and katie neural nowadays as s. f. g. and sitting
00:20:32
in this very unique place where we are in geneva today
00:20:36
i think ah s. f. g. r. homework or where we'd like to play is
00:20:42
as if she's been around since two thousand eight and so was
00:20:46
on these issues when they were very they sent and so i
00:20:50
think we wanna keep focusing on the areas of finance that are
00:20:53
nice and better coming so we have the gender lines initiative for switzerland
00:20:57
we're looking at peace finance like that's a very difficult
00:21:00
thing to finance and to to measure and figure out
00:21:04
the impact as so um i think with the events
00:21:09
in ukraine where we're all recognising that we really blinds
00:21:13
capital to be a source of of keys and not a source of
00:21:16
work and so this is um these are the areas that were committed to
00:21:22
advancing are some of these harder to finance areas or for future
00:21:25
areas uh finance and the u. s. g. some of the mainstreaming stuff
00:21:29
that's being done by lots of players that we wanna be positioning ourselves on what are the next things
00:21:36
and and maybe katie where where we uh no i'll i'll take that as an access to nevada
00:21:41
yeah please sorry i i want to react to your um my co company at least uh on
00:21:49
consider it really what i'm just about the topic of impact management you know
00:21:54
i wanted to react about what you said about what we're looking in a
00:21:57
company i really had all those conversation five years ago but we're looking for
00:22:01
companies that would have a city management what are really see now is about
00:22:07
there's like a second generation of management which is
00:22:09
very much about impact management having the right um
00:22:14
first vision state of mind but then you know uh what does that mean in terms
00:22:20
of new of a matrix in how do you follow for in in fart we'll i think
00:22:26
that i've heard that investment is gonna take us from
00:22:29
yes she hopefully to impact in s. p. g. n. infamy
00:22:33
we need to move out of these units yes she
00:22:35
discourse to really move to words in my speech discourse then
00:22:41
i also feel that we reach a form of maturity when we look at them
00:22:47
you know at the at the value chain of investment
00:22:50
in one part part of growing the pipeline having a better
00:22:54
inside on developing markets i think or reaching a form of
00:22:58
maturity another point for all the play yours is to move
00:23:03
uh i would say upwards in the value chain in because we're talking about scandal
00:23:09
those investors fact we need to convince our voice at the top
00:23:13
of the value chain and we are institutional investors any indeed we need
00:23:18
bake tickets in the only way to make it work is gonna be to form a
00:23:23
lot in sees between play years uh across
00:23:27
the entire value chain if let's say you back
00:23:30
phones so that we bring them also to maturity and we can we can get really like
00:23:36
at the at the top of a of a value chain but but i think you know
00:23:41
i think it's a very impatient in we rely sided taking it's taking a lot of time with being
00:23:47
well that that's up these freeways we've been working on that project for the last six years and we're starting
00:23:53
to see the maturity of what i called the bottom of a of
00:23:56
a value chain so let's continue we count uh yeah we can't afford to
00:24:02
you know to to give up we just need to to continue to words fact objective
00:24:07
of having a large part of a capital market did katie to s. t. g. align finance
00:24:14
