Expansion to foreign markets usually implies the selection of an adequate financing facility that would fit a given transaction, as well as the specificity of a particular foreign market. This paper explores how Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (BGK) in its capacity of a state development bank funding the expansion of Polish business to other countries, i.e., exports and foreign direct investment projects carried out by Polish businesses or their foreign affiliates. The author's considerations focus on instruments offered by BGK, which provide direct financing, such as loans to foreign buyers and investment loans dedicated to projects carried out in other countries. Moreover, the paper discusses, inter alia, the current data for Polish exports, as well as selected transactions that BGK supported financially over the period 2015-2018.

The World Bank is the most important financier for international investment. The bank opens credits mostly for investment projects in developing countries. Turkey has received various investment credits since its membership to the World Bank on March 11, 1947. The credits were used for economic and social domains. Turkey has also been granted credits from the European Investment Bank (EIB). The credits received are composed of micro credits that belong to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). A regional development bank, Islamic Development Bank, has also received credits through Eximbank and Industrial Development Bank of Turkey (TSKB) to finance Turkish SMEs. This chapter deals with Turkish investment strategies in the framework of basic principles of investment – development banks.

This report provides a review of the tools and methodologies for the calculation of greenhouse emissions for development projects in sectors such as water supply and sanitation, infrastructure, finance and governance sectors. The report undertakes a comparative analysis of the different tools and methodologies employed by different international financial institutions for the calculation of carbon footprinting for investment projects they finance. The institutions include; the Inter-America Development Bank, the International Financial Institution (IFI) Technical Working Group (TWG), the European Investment Bank, and the Asian Development Bank. The review notes that due to the varied nature of the tools and methodologies for calculation of greenhouse emissions in the financial sectors, there is a need to ensure that the methodologies employed adhere to the basic principles of completeness, consistency, transparency, conservativeness, balance, accuracy, and relevance.

The key trends of dynamics and structure of investment activity in the agroindustrial complex of Ukraine are determined. It is indicated that the most attractive type of agroindustrial complex for foreign investors is the production of food products. The tendency to decrease the level of direct state support of capital investments in the agro-industrial complex was revealed. It was established that in the types of economic activity of the agro-industrial complex in 2017, 233 investment projects were implemented accompanied by state authorities and management (national, departmental and regional levels). The proposals on improving the investment attractiveness of the agro-industrial complex are presented. Reasonable measures aimed at improving the organizational and economic mechanism of investment activity of the agro-industrial complex. The tools of stimulating investment lending in the agroindustrial complex by means of payment of budget compensations aimed at «cheapening» loans, as well as for expanding the practice of applying investment lending to the agro-industrial complex based on the use of market instruments are proposed. Promising market instruments for activating long-term (investment) lending to the agro-industrial complex have been identified, namely: support for the functioning of cooperative banks established with the participation of business entities in the agro-industrial complex; support for the creation and operation of specialized agrarian banks, which should be targeted at the priority servicing of borrowers of the agro-industrial complex; creation of the State Development Bank, which will carry out preferential investment crediting of agricultural enterprises; stimulation of introduction of the newest credit products for the agro-industrial complex.

This report summarizes the results of the Office of Evaluation and Oversight's (OVE) annual validation of the self-assessments of project performance and results completed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and IDB Invest in 2019-2020. The IDB and IDB Invest have systems in place to measure the development effectiveness of their operations. These systems use a number of instruments to assess projects at the design, implementation, and completion phases. The design-phase assessment uses a “Development Effectiveness Matrix” (DEM) for sovereign guaranteed (SG) operations. The effectiveness of non-sovereign guaranteed (NSG) operations is measured with a “Development Effectiveness Learning, Tracking, and Assessment tool” (DELTA). Implementation-phase assessments measure SG operations with “Project Monitoring Reports,” while NSG operations are assessed with “Project Supervision Reports.” Upon completion, SG projects are self-evaluated with “Project Completion Reports,” or PCRs. NSG operations, use “Expanded Supervision Reports,” or XSRs when they reach early operation maturity (EOM). OVE validates Managements self-evaluations (PCRs and XSRs) and assigns a final project performance rating to each operation. As part of the 2020 validation cycle, OVE reviewed PCRs for 63 operations, 62 with operational closure (CO fully justified) in 2018 and one in 2013. XSRs were reviewed for 36 IDB Invest operations that had reached early operating maturity (EOM) in 2018.

The paper analyzes shortcomings of economic impact studies based mainly on input- output models that are often employed in Russia as well as abroad. Using studies about sport events in the USA and Olympic Games that took place during the last 30 years we reveal advantages of the cost-benefit analysis approach in obtaining unbiased assessments of public investments efficiency; the step-by-step method of cost-benefit analysis is presented in the paper as well. We employ the project of Sochi-2014 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Russia to evaluate its efficiency using cost-benefit analysis for five accounts (areas of impact), namely government, households, environment, economic development, and social development, and calculate the net present value of the project taking into account its possible alternatives. In conclusion we suggest several policy directions that would enhance public investment efficiency within the Sochi-2014 Olympics.
