Blended Finance
This article is a placeholder. Only its topic and title are committed at this stage; the substantive body will be drafted in a future cycle of the engine.
Blended finance combines concessional public, philanthropic, and commercial tranches in a single capital stack, with the concessional layer absorbing first-loss to reduce risk for the commercial tranche. It is the structural pattern for de-risking unproven regenerative or CEA business models.
