Book Description
Inclusive Business (IB) was a central theme of the 2018 G20 Argentine Presidency. To supplement the G20’s Development Working Group’s efforts, the Inclusive Business Activities Summary Report was developed by the Inclusive Business Action Network (iBAN) and the UNDP, wherein 47 best-practice case studies of projects, initiatives, and policies are analysed. IB practices seek to build wealth with low-income people, who are often underserved by businesses, in a scalable and commercially viable manner. Extending the wealth-generating power of business to low-income communities is seen as an effective catalyst for lifting people out of poverty. Indeed, the report notes the importance of IB, remarking that; ‘the future of work and the successful implementation of the Agenda 2030 hinges on the inclusion of those at the so-called Base of the Economic Pyramid (BoP), who earn up to US$8 per day and constitute half of the World’s population.’ – p.4. The report provides insights on the IB activities undertaken by the member States of the G20, invited countries and International Organisations (IOs). The insights include IB activities in different sectors, funding mechanisms, and the forms of inclusion of individuals at the Base of the Pyramid (BoP). By providing perceptions on the enabling environment and connecting practitioners, the aim of this report is to help scale up IB and encourage the replication of good practices in more countries to accelerate their efforts to be more inclusive, ultimately helping to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. The Inclusive Business Activities Summary Report outlines the theoretical underpinnings of IB whilst also analysing some illustrative examples. The report highlights how states are taking steps to create corporate environments that are conducive to the thriving of IBs. There are fantastic opportunities, both for material gain and global sustainable development, to be unlocked through IB, and this report helps to detail the roadmap for policymakers, investors, and businesses as they shift towards IB. Report Findings Within the 47 case studies, engaging with the BoP as suppliers and customers were the most prevalent IB practices (31 and 27 cases respectively, including overlapping cases). Moreover, the most popular sectors for BoP engagement were agriculture (29) and the manufacture and retail of consumer goods (21). Given that one of the designated aims of the report is to improve policy-maker’s understanding of IB, the report also addresses the intervention priorities of states seeking to overcome the four key barriers to a healthy IB ecosystem, these are; information (26% of projects), rules (12%), capacity (35%), and finance (27%). The case studies were selected by participating states and IOs, therefore a majority of the projects (28) were state-funded in origin, yet a significant proportion of cases (19) also received some private sector backing, with 39% of cases receiving a blend of two-or-more financing sources. 40% of the projects were domestically governed, thus demonstrating the faith that emerging economies have in IB as a means to enhance development aims. Case Studies The annex to the report provides a concise synopsis of each case study. Many of these examples take a multi-faceted ad multi-stakeholder approach to tackling barriers to IB; for example, the USA-led 2X Challenge unites Development Finance Institutions to mobilize $3bn USD to invest in women around the world and demonstrate best practices of transparency, accountability and sustainable investment policy. Other case studies present domestic initiatives by states to promote IB in very specific areas. For example, the Australian Indigenous Procurement Policy (IPP) directly engages with Aboriginal communities as entrepreneurs and retailers. It seeks to leverage the Commonwealth’s procurement spending to facilitate Indigenous inclusion in value chains through setting targets for contracts with Indigenous Businesses, as well as providing minimum targets for Indigenous involvement in large-scale projects. In 2018, the IPP has helped to secure 3,291 contracts for 723 Indigenous businesses worth $205m USD. IB presents an exciting opportunity for businesses to take an active role in achieving the SDGs and will remain a core thematic area for the G20 Development Working Group (DWG) going forward.

Book Description
In keeping with the Turkish Presidency’s focus on inclusiveness, the G20 has strengthened its work on shared prosperity within and beyond G20 Members, as well as its engagement with low income developing countries, partners in civil society and the private sector. The G20 is a very important forum in bringing traditional donor countries and emerging and South-South development partners together, enabling its members to explore new ways to co-operate. At the G20 Antalya Summit in November 2015, the Leaders of the G20 formally endorsed the G20 Leaders’ Call on Inclusive Business, the G20 Inclusive Business Framework and called for the establishment of the G20 Global Platform on Inclusive Business. The new G20 Inclusive Business Framework, designed with the support of UNDP and the World Bank, opens up new opportunities for low-income people and communities to participate in markets. The framework will also serve as tool for the G20 engagement in the effective implementation of the SDGs. Objective The Framework defines inclusive business, sets out recommendations to enable inclusive business and presents policy options for G20 and non-G20 governments, companies, and international financial institutions to promote and support inclusive business as a means to end poverty.

Book Description
Although the number of inclusive businesses has risen substantially over the past decade, they are still far from the desired level. Furthermore, most of the existing inclusive businesses are not elaborated to their full potential. To discover why, the IICPSD has posed two main questions: First, what do successful initiatives that reach their full potential in terms of scale and impact have in common? Second, what is the private sector’s current level of knowledge, engagement and awareness of inclusive business? This report addresses these questions and presents findings from four stages of research. A comprehensive literature review and an analysis of 150 successful inclusive business cases around the world were conducted to answer the first research question. In-depth interviews with top-executives from ten businesses and a survey of 680 companies in Turkey was also carried out to tackle the second concern.
