At the Berne Union Annual General Meeting, Marcos Athias Neto, Assistant Administrator and Director of the Bureau of Policy and Programme Support at UNDP, shares his insights on what’s holding private investors back from entering high-risk markets — and how collaboration between UNDP and the Berne Union can help bridge that gap.

Marcos discusses the role of development institutions, risk-sharing mechanisms, and partnerships that can unlock private capital for sustainable growth where it’s needed most.
