Algene highlighted and deepened DFC’s focus on the importance of supporting gender-led initiatives and women in development. From announcing the agency’s work in India to provide loans to MSMEs working on renewable energy projects, to supporting 2X Initiative partnerships with regional Indo-Pacific financial institutions from Taiwan and Japan, Algene’s cause-driven work ethic yielded tremendous results for the agency.
