The Manufacturing, Agribusiness & Services (MAS) Industry Group plays an important role in supporting IFC's strategic priorities, covering investments in the Global Manufacturing, Agribusiness, and Services sectors. MAS' sectors play a critical role in providing goods and services to consumers, addressing core needs, creating jobs, contributing to government revenues and stimulating growth. In IFC's client countries, these sectors can account for as much as 80% of overall economic activity and can account for up to 90% of employment activity, particularly in the poorest countries.

This strategy aims to create new investment opportunities for private investments in riskier markets and sectors by proactively working "upstream" to create, deepen, and expand markets and design and develop potential investment projects. Achieving these growth and impact ambitions at scale requires an approach to business development, deal sourcing, and client support that relies on (i) a broader product offering to engage earlier in project cycle and secure opportunities, (ii) a greater focus on preparing clients in nascent markets and sector development, (iii) a greater focus on value addition and risk management of portfolio investment clients to enhance their performance, and (iv) a longer time horizon and a more patient, longer term perspective.

IFC a member of the World Bank Group is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, and influence to create markets and opportunities. Our mission is to leverage the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity on a livable planet. IFC has embarked on an ambitious growth strategy (IFC 3.0) to stimulate more private sector investment activity in frontier markets. This strategy aims to proactively work "Upstream" with clients and partners in our member countries to create, deepen, and expand markets and to imagine, design and implement investment projects. To operationalize the Upstream strategy, IFC has created Regional Upstream Units within each of the Global and Regional Industry Departments (Financial Markets, Infrastructure and Manufacturing, Agribusiness and Services) to drive the Upstream mandate to incubate opportunities, focus resources, and coordinate initiatives across IFC and the WBG to create new markets. Ultimately, it is about creating a new multi-year pipeline of bankable operations / projects. IFC's Manufacturing, Agribusiness and Services (MAS) Department covers sectors which cater to basic human needs such as food, shelter, jobs, health, education and a wide range of manufactured goods. They play a critical role in providing goods and services to consumers, creating jobs, contributing to government revenue, and stimulating growth through small or medium-sized businesses. Through the business it does with its private sector clients, IFC's priorities in MAS are: (i) increasing productivity and access to goods and services, while protecting the environment, supporting low carbon growth and enhancing resilience to climate change related impacts; (ii) making IFC the preferred financing partner of choice for targeted clients, in part through its world-class industry expertise; (iii) supporting select local companies to grow while improving their transparency, efficiency and sustainable competitiveness; (iv) catalyzing foreign investment, including mobilizing parallel financing; and (v) developing client, sector and country-level solutions that can be scaled and replicated with a special focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation.
