IFC intends to strategically identify; develop; and invest in a pipeline of projects in the Household Appliances sector in emerging markets globally. We are also open to considering investing in Developed country Corporations with manufacturing bases in emerging markets. IFC seeks to develop strategic relationship with clients to be a first call partner who will provide advice leveraging its global expertise across industries and more specifically knowledge of emerging markets. These projects may be in stages ranging from early-stage project development to those needing immediate investment. Within the Household Appliances sector; IFC is especially focused on the white goods (also known as major appliances); brown goods (also known as consumer electronics) and its associated sustainability themes such as circularity; resource efficiency and decarbonization given the increasing significance in emerging markets.As urban populations grow and disposal incomes rise in developing countries; the household appliances sector in emerging markets will see a continued increase in demand. This will create opportunities for IFC to meet growing demand and to deal with the sector¡¯s requirements of circularity; resource efficiency and decarbonization. As a result; the Project aims to map out the sector in emerging markets and its relevant dynamics to identify actionable investment opportunities for IFC. These will trigger opportunities for IFC as players in Emerging Markets seek to meet growing demands and to deal with requirements of circularity; resource efficiency and decarbonization. The proposed study will focus on the Household Appliances sector. The Household Appliances sector study aims to map out the sector in Emerging Markets and its relevant dynamics to identify actionable investment opportunities which will support potential projects or investment-ready opportunities and thus generate future pipeline for IFC.
