Are there any private companies/funds that are similar to the International Finance Corporation (World Ban?
Q. I'm wondering if there are any PRIVATE funds that have a similar mission to the IFC, the private investment arm of the World Bank. They need to be aiming towards development projects in various areas in developing/Third World countries.

(be critical of him in my opinion, the man's a moron but good starter reading) ...But you need to start thinking about much narrower subject area's within this subject then you can start reading more relevant papers and books.
