Impact Investment | Blended Finance

  • – The world is undergoing one of the worst refugee crisis since World War II, and Jordan is one of the most affected countries both in absolute and relative terms
  • – While many humanitarian relief & infrastructure investment efforts exist, the funding ecosystem under-serves SMEs & entrepreneurs which cater to refugee needs
  • – The social impact investment component with a triple bottom-line impact is more than attainable in the refugee context, but until now little has been done outside the pure aid sphere

Satellite Imagery Reveals 7 New Israeli Army Outposts In Syria

Satellite Imagery Reveals 7 New Israeli Army Outposts In Syria Via The Cradle The Israeli army has set up at least seven new military outposts in southern Syria, satellite imagery published by Haaretz newspaper on 18 February has revealed.  The new military sites were established in Mount Hermon, Hader, Jubata al-Khashab, Al-Hamidiyah, Quneitra, Al-Qahtaniyah, and Tel Kudna. They aim to serve as "operational hubs for troops" in Syria as part of a reorganization of the Israeli presence in the south of the country, Haaretz said.  Via Planet Labs The sites include living quarters, command centers, clinics, bathrooms, and showers. Israeli occupation forces swept across southern Syria after the fall of former president Bashar al-Assad’s government in December last year, moving past the demilitarized zone and expanding their decades-long illegal occupation [...]

G7 Weighing Tightening Russian Oil Price Cap At War's 3-Year Mark

G7 Weighing Tightening Russian Oil Price Cap At War's 3-Year Mark The Group of Seven is looking to send a big anti-Russia message on Feb. 24, the three-year anniversary of Putin's invasion of Ukraine, with a potential tightening of an oil price cap intended to further hurt revenue for Russia's war machine. Bloomberg has revealed a G7 draft statement Tuesday calling for member nations to collectively redraw the price limit, which is currently set at $60 a barrel for crude oil. The document spells out pressure for Russia to "incentivize it to negotiate a meaningful peace" in Ukraine; however, it's anything but clear whether this is being called for in cooperation with Trump officials, who are engaged in direct talks with Moscow. The draft at one point [...]

Poland's Security Chief Shares Some Interesting Insight About The Ukrainian Conflict's Endgame

Poland's Security Chief Shares Some Interesting Insight About The Ukrainian Conflict's Endgame Authored by Andrew Korybko via substack, He said that nobody in Europe knows what Trump’s plan actually is, they’re unable to assemble the approximately 100,000 troops that a prolonged peacekeeping mission in Ukraine would require, and Poland still remains reluctant to participate in any such mission even if it’s heavily pressured to do so. Chief of Poland’s National Security Bureau Dariusz Lukowski gave an interview to Radio ZET on Monday about his country’s position towards the Ukrainian Conflict. According to him, it shouldn’t send peacekeepers to Ukraine, but this still can’t be ruled out in the future despite Prime Minister Donald Tusk once again explicitly saying that it won’t do so. That’s because there’d be a lot of pressure [...]

China FX Outflows Soar As Beijing Prepares For Next Currency Devaluation, Priming Next Bitcoin Doubling

China FX Outflows Soar As Beijing Prepares For Next Currency Devaluation, Priming Next Bitcoin Doubling Back in October 2023, when we pointed out that China's FX outflows had just hit a whopping $75BN - the single biggest monthly outflow since the 2015 currency devaluation - we concluded that the "unfavorable interest rate spread between China and the US will likely imply persistent depreciation and outflow pressures in coming months", or in other words, "September's biggest FX outflow in years is just the beginning, and very soon - in addition to geopolitics and central banks - the world will also be freaking out about the capital flight out of China... not to mention where all those billions in Chinese savings are going and which digital currency [...]

Beijing Underground Command Center Signals Preparation For Conflict

Beijing Underground Command Center Signals Preparation For Conflict Authored by John Mills via The Epoch Times, The media recently reported that China’s People’s Liberation Army is building the world’s biggest military base underground in possible preparation for conflict with the United States. Large enough to fit 10 Pentagons, the new super large facility should not be a surprise - it is a logical and iterative next step of a long program of underground facilities by China. The command center is on the western outskirts of the capital city of Beijing. In about 2011, stories began to appear around China’s “Underground Great Wall.” “In March 2008, China’s state-run CCTV network broke the news about a 5,000-kilometre-long network of hardened tunnels built to house the Chinese Second Artillery [...]
