Can you make an omelette without breaking some eggs? Not talking about going vegan, but about the metaphor / attitude that justifies violations of human rights for development. It is a false trade-off. Development banks need to strengthen human rights safeguards! At the new Bankwatch & FIDH report launch we will discuss how. Join us!
SAVE THE DATE! Join us for the launch of our new report ‘More than money: Development banks must strengthen human rights safeguards’. 📅 6 May, 12:00 CET ✍ Registration: https://lnkd.in/ejtrDWsW The European Investment Bank (EIB), the EBRD, the Agence Française de Développement, and the IFC - International Finance Corporation are four of the world’s leading public development banks. Their lending policies commit to respecting #HumanRights. Yet despite this commitment, and despite environmental and social safeguards, projects financed by these banks all too often end up violating human rights. How can public development banks better integrate human rights considerations into the assessment and management of projects they fund?

Check our new report on Human Rights and Publoc Banks
📰 NEW REPORT Despite having environmental and social safeguards in place, projects financed by public development banks all too often violate human rights. In our new report with CEE Bankwatch Network, we map the human rights policies of four leading public development banks: the EBRD, European Investment Bank (EIB), IFC - International Finance Corporation and Agence Française de Développement. Our conclusion? Their current social and environmental sustainability frameworks provide a solid basis for exercising human rights due diligence. However, our analysis reveals significant shortcomings in transparency and public participation at every stage of the project life cycle, from assessment to implementation. So what does this mean? Human rights considerations can be better integrated into banking policies across the board. Take a look at our policy recommendations and good practices for inspiration. We hope that the EBRD will find them particularly useful now that the Bank is revising its good governance policies!

The Risk Master; Global Speaker; Systems Thinker
EBRD APPROVES MEMBERSHIP OF KENYA AND NIGERIA It has been widely reported that the shareholders of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) have approved applications by Kenya and Nigeria to become members of the multilateral financial institution. Both countries applied for EBRD membership in March and April 2024, respectively. Approval from the Bank’s Board of Governors is the first stage of the membership procedure. The two countries will need to meet some final pre-membership requirements before the process is concluded. Both countries’ applications also included requests to become recipients of EBRD financial and advisory services, which the Bank will address once the statutory amendments are in force. Certainly, this is a cheering news. But what are the implications of membership of EBRD?

Private sector credit extension declines in June Namibia’s private-sector credit extension grew by only 1.8% year-on-year in June 2024, data from Simonis Storm Securities shows. According to the research firm, this marks a decline from 3.2% in May 2024 and 2.9% in June 2023, with the continued restrictive financial conditions being a key reason for the reduced credit growth. https://lnkd.in/g-tudjJ4 #namibia #credit Halleluya Ndimulunde

While public finance institutions may be making strides on themes like #HumanRights and #Corruption, this report highlights significant gaps in areas such as #ClimateChange, raising concerns about their commitment to financing a #JustEnergyTransition. It’s clear there’s room for improvement as we work toward a more sustainable and equitable future.
📢 The Fair Finance Coalition for Southern Africa (FFCSA) has published its latest round of #policy assessments 🌱 The assessments evaluate the #sustainability policies of eight Public Finance Institutions (PFIs) using the Fair Finance Guide International Methodology. 🔎 Based on Profundo policy assessments, FFCSA's report indicates that while PFIs perform relatively well on certain themes, such as #humanrights and #corruption, their policies remain weak in other areas, like #climatechange, demonstrating a weak commitment to financing a Just Energy Transition.
