  • State investment banks and patient finance: An international comparison

The report reviews the design features of eight international state investment banks from countries and regions across the world, and the role that each bank plays in its respective economy. Lessons are used to reflect on how SIBs can be designed to address the challenges and opportunities of patient strategic finance.
