Corinne Figueredo is the strategy and finance lead for the IFC’s Green Building Market Transformation Program, which was established in 2013. The Program has catalyzed over $3 billion in green building investment to date with IFC’s borrowers, which include housing developers, offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, retail chains and banks who offer construction finance and green mortgages. The Program’s success has been largely due to the EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) free software application which has made green design more accessible to about 9,000 users and has enabled the certification of 1.7 million m2 of green floor space. IFC is currently working with the public and private sector on green building policy and voluntary certification in developing countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe. Corinne has worked in climate related finance since 2003, when she launched IFC’s first early stage cleantech investment program. Since joining IFC in 1992, her investment work has spanned energy, transport, waste, water, financial institutions and general manufacturing.
IFC is the private sector arm of the World Bank Group.
