    Explaining the Ins and Outs of Blended Finance

    Blended finance uses catalytic capital from public or philanthropic sources to mobilize private investment toward sustainable development — but how are these vehicles structured, and what enables them to scale? On this week’s episode of the ESG Currents podcast, Timothee Jaulin, head of responsible investment development & advocacy at Amundi, joins Shaheen Contractor, senior ESG analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, to unpack how blended finance works in practice. The discussion breaks down how blended finance vehicles are structured — from the roles of DFIs and asset managers to tranche design, capital layering and the realities of deployment timelines. They also explore how risk is allocated and mitigated via credit enhancements, guarantees and political risk insurance — and who is driving demand today, from multilateral developmental banks to family offices, as Asia emerges as a key growth market.

    Making Africa Bankable - Financing Resilience

    In Africa, sustainable finance is less about decarbonizing legacy assets and more about building resilient systems that make the continent bankable for decades to come. In this episode of ESG Currents, BI EMEA ESG Integration Analyst Grace Osborne speaks with Amal Benaissa, director of sustainability advocacy at Bank of Africa, on what it takes to effectively mobilize climate capital across emerging markets - and why this agenda is ultimately about macroeconomic stability, not just the environment. From energy efficiency and rooftop solar to food systems, SMEs and clean industrial exports, they explore how blended finance, local-currency lending and more flexible taxonomies can turn transition priorities into investable opportunities and unlock private capital at scale.

    Professor Lipton on State of Corporate Governance

    Delaware is the legal home of almost two-thirds of the S&P 500. But efforts are underway to change that, most notably Tesla’s approval last year from shareholders to reincorporate in Texas.

On this week’s episode of ESG Currents, Senior ESG Analyst Rob Du Boff is joined by Ann Lipton of the University of Colorado Law School, an expert on corporate governance, to discuss the so-called DExit, the relationship between corporations and investors, and the broader role of corporations in society. This episode was recorded Dec 2, 2025.
