2025

This report presents a comprehensive overview of the 2025 environmental, social, and financial performance of the Free Closed Investment Fund for the Development of Dominican Infrastructures I, highlighting its role as a strategic vehicle for sustainable infrastructure development in the Dominican Republic. Developed through a partnership between CIFI and AFI Universal, the Fund channels capital from the local capital market, particularly pension funds, into priority infrastructure projects that generate both sustainable financial returns and measurable development impact. Aligned with international sustainability frameworks, including the IFC Performance Standards and the Equator Principles, the Fund integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria across its entire investment cycle. As of 2025, the Fund reached a total size of approximately DOP 14 billion (USD 250 million), consolidating its position as a leading platform for responsible investment in the country.

The report details the performance of the Fund’s five core projects, Parque Solar Canoa, Parque Eólico Los Guzmancito, Termoeléctrica SIBA, the Blue Mall & JW Marriott complex, and Coastal Petroleum, each demonstrating strong environmental and social management practices while contributing to national development priorities. In 2025, the portfolio achieved a combined installed capacity of more than 380 MW across solar, wind, and natural gas assets, contributing to an estimated annual reduction of over 250,000 tCO₂e and improving access to essential services for approximately 335,000 people. The Fund’s investments also generated or sustained nearly 6,000 jobs, supporting economic growth, strengthening energy security, and advancing the country’s transition toward a more resilient economy.

The report further highlights continuous improvements in ESG governance, risk management, and stakeholder engagement across the portfolio, supported by a robust Environmental and Social Management System. Through transparent reporting and a disciplined investment approach, the Fund demonstrates its capacity to align financial performance with positive environmental and social outcomes.
