Our investment
In 2016, CDC invested $75 million into the Fund, alongside the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, healthcare operators such as Philips and Medtronic, as well as other DFIs such as France’s Proparco and IFC. Our investment will provide accessible, affordable and high-quality treatment for non-communicable diseases.
Expected impact
Lack of access to medical resources and inefficient healthcare systems across Africa and Asia continue to deliver poor outcomes for a large number of the population. From Nigeria to Kenya and Pakistan, low- and middle-income countries trail their richer counterparts on healthcare provision.
Our investment will enable the fund manager to focus on improving care in the fields of non-communicable disease and mother and child health.
The fund will create a network of healthcare facilities that can share resources. By connecting facilities and personnel across specialities and geographies the fund manager aims to improve access to good quality healthcare for people living in underserved areas.
The project will aim to create or maintain jobs for 7,500 people across its portfolio companies and train over 5,200 health workers.
