IFC Invests in Private Health Care in Africa

IFC, the world's largest multilateral investor in the private health sector in emerging markets, held its third biennial health conference, May 6-8, 2009, at IFC headquarters in Washington, D.C.

Titled "Private Health Care in Emerging Markets—Managing in Good Times and Bad", the event brought together experts from private health care, government, academia, insurance, and financing to explore the future of private health care in developing countries and the changes taking place in the sector in the wake of the global financial crisis. More than 125 participants from over 20 countries attended the conference.
