Launch of the 2025 DFI Transparency Index

About this Event
The development finance landscape is shifting. Traditional aid flows are shrinking, while a growing and diverse range of actors are providing new forms of finance. Critical players in the new financing architecture, players that will be under increased pressure to address global challenges, are development finance institutions (DFIs). But as investment through DFIs grows, so too does the demand for transparency and accountability—to ensure that these scarce resources are deployed effectively and equitably. What do we know about the climate finance provided by DFIs, or the impact of their investments? How are DFIs accountable to communities affected by projects they fund, and can we tell whether DFIs are mobilising private capital for development and climate goals to help fill the financing gap?
To help answer these questions and many more, Publish What You Fund has assessed the transparency of leading multilateral and bilateral DFIs to produce the 2025 DFI Transparency Index. It builds on the inaugural 2023 Index to reflect evolving global priorities, particularly in climate finance transparency and community impact disclosure. Importantly, it measures the progress made over the last two years to systematically improve the disclosure and accessibility of critical investment information.
Publish What You Fund, in partnership with ODI Global Centre for Private Finance in Development, will launch the second DFI Transparency Index on Thursday 26 June, in London and online. The event will convene key stakeholders, including representatives from DFIs, government agencies, civil society, and the private sector, to discuss the findings of the Index and explore strategies for improving financial and impact transparency in development and climate finance.
This event will take place online via zoom and in-person at:
