Listen to this story:
In this powerful exchange, Dr. H.E. Gene Leon, Executive Director of the Development Bank for Resilient Prosperity calls for a fundamental rethinking of how we define value in finance—advocating for outcomes over yields, systems over silos, and prosperity rooted in resilience. Dr. Leon unpacks the urgent need to reprice nature and social capital, and outlines a transformative vision for Small Island Developing States (SIDS) navigating climate and economic vulnerability.
Hosted by Ketan Patel, this Force for Good conversation delivers a critical dialogue on unlocking capital for long-term human and planetary flourishing.
💬 “The whole concept of return needs to be reimagined—longer in horizon, wider in scope. We must reprice the true cost to the planet.” commented H.E. Gene Leon, Executive Director of the Development Bank for Resilient Prosperity.
From decades of leadership at the IMF and Caribbean Development Bank to his current role shaping a new development finance model, Dr. Leon offers bold insights into:
Financing for resilient prosperity
Redefining risk and return in development
Building systemic, inclusive growth models
The India financial inclusion model
Moving beyond fragmentation toward global coherence
