Partner Shinoj Koshy and Associate Shivani Goyal has recently authored an insightful article titled ‘Blended Finance: An Idea Whose Time Has Come’.
The article is based on the growing relevance of blended finance as a tool to unlock private capital for socially impactful projects in India. It highlights how blended finance, through a strategic mix of concessional and commercial capital, can help bridge the persistent funding gap for high-impact initiatives that traditional investors often shy away from. Using practical examples and recent regulatory developments, the article explores how blended finance structures can reduce risk, lower the cost of capital, and catalyze private sector participation in India’s sustainable development journey.
