Invest International is a financing institution owned by the Dutch Ministry of Finance (51%) and Dutch development bank FMO (49%). We offer tailor-made financing and project development expertise to bring projects in emerging markets to fruition and create impact on the SDG's, while serving Dutch interests.
We have a catalytic financing capacity, offering investment capital for public and private projects, as well as grants enabling public infrastructure projects. While deploying our funds, we make efforts to engage the expertise of Dutch businesses, demonstrate strong environmental & social commitment and strive for local impact and inclusive growth.
Invest International was assigned by the Dutch Government to develop and finance Green Hydrogen projects in emerging markets, to contribute to local sustainable development and support the energy transition in Northwestern Europe.
Carrying out this assignment, Invest International launched, together with Climate Fund Managers, Climate Investor Three (CI3) as a blended finance investment platform targeting energy transition and green hydrogen projects. CI3 is currently structured as a family of funds including a global structure and country-specific funds in Namibia and South Africa.
Additionally, Invest International helps kickstarting green hydrogen corridors from emerging markets to Northwest Europe, to meet the demand required for the decarbonisation of industries. We do so by deploying a diverse range of financial instruments, and developing – together with partners – risk mitigation and offtake stimulation strategies.
