  national trust fund (GO and private enterprises)
  with global outreach cannot be realized, but has
  to be actively followed on political and
  technical level
• BMZ is in favor of supporting a reduced number of
  local trust funds under active participation of
  sponsors (strategic partnerships)
  
• A pre-feasibility in Präparation, synthesizing
  risks and advantages of off-shore funds on
