NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Pre-COVID, all eyes were on Indonesia as a hotspot for innovative finance. As the pandemic pulls away the curtains of development finance, the country is coming to terms with the fact that finance wasn’t really working for the 99%.

Although innovative finance holds great potential for #BuildingBackBetter, the real situation is dire, with:

• Limited information on how big multilateral dollars will reach the 99%
• Donor countries turning inward and investor funding drying up
• An urgent need to move from relief to COVID-resilience

Join IIX for a virtual discussion on how to make finance work for the last mile. Session features:

• Mr. J. Rizal Primana, Senior Advisor at Bappenas (Indonesia’s Ministry of National Development Planning)
• Ms Ita Rulina, Director of Bank Indonesia Macroprudential Department
• Mrs Felicia Barus, Head of Bank Indonesia Institute Academy of Leadership and General Management
• Prof. Durreen Shanaz, Founder and CEO of IIX
• Robert Kraybill, Chief Investment Officer of IIX

This webinar will start from 10:00am WIB (GMT+7) to 11:00am WIB (GMT+7)
