DFC’s unique financing capabilities make America’s Deal Team the partner of choice for leading investors and operators around the world. We invest in meaningful, long-term growth to drive both strategic and financial returns for America and our allies.

The US private sector may be the most dynamic force the world has ever known. One of the @StateDept's top priorities is to work with the private sector to identify economic and commercial opportunities abroad to promote prosperity through mutually advantageous deals. In particular, we’re working to expand markets for US exports of both goods and services, and facilitate US investments abroad that align with our national priorities. Among the tools that Congress has created to further these objectives are the Development Finance Corporation (@DFCgov), which promotes private sector investments abroad that advance our policy goals, and the Millennium Challenge Corporation (@MCCgov), which helps create the physical and regulatory infrastructure abroad necessary to support such investments. The Secretary of State serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of both entities, and I'm honored that @SecRubio has tasked me with representing him in both capacities. Under the leadership of @POTUS @realDonaldTrump and @SecRubio, we recognize that our country's economic and commercial interests are key pillars of our foreign policy. And it’s a personal privilege for me, as my father started his diplomatic career as Commercial Attaché at our Embassy in Montevideo, Uruguay, some 70 years ago, and drilled into me the centrality of economic and commercial interests in foreign policy. 💪🇺🇸
