About Peter Vanderwal

I've got more than 20 years experience designing and leading sustainable development programs, and 10 years specialising in developing and launching innovative financing mechanisms to bring new approaches and new partnerships to address the most intractable social issues in emerging economies.I've worked across Central and Eastern Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, South and South East Asia, the South Pacific and the Middle East, with national governments, donors, foundations, multilateral institutions, INGOs, and some of the world's largest corporations and financial institutions. Since 2014 I've specialised in bringing non-traditional partners together at the convergence of results-based financing, public private partnerships and impact investing to advance the objectives of the Sustainable Development Goals. I'm committed to building the capacity of governments, institutions, companies and individuals to harness the power of new structures that align private capital with the needs of communities. As an innovative finance expert specialising in the emerging impact bond space I've spoken widely - and at length! - on the topic, and contributed significantly to the existing body of practical knowledge in the space. I also love frontier tech solutions. Stay tuned for a report I'm about to release on how frontier tech can make impact bonds more impactful!Expertise: Leadership, innovative development financing mechanisms, impact investing, FinTech, ICT4D, public private partnerships, skills transfer and capacity building, strategy development, solution architecture, and cross-cultural and cross-organisational communication.
