A long-term impact mindset leads to sustainable development outcomes.
Our evergreen debt funds aim to achieve impact, by driving financial inclusion, job growth, and economic improvement, in emerging markets.
Limited access to financial resources is still an ongoing issue for under-served segments such as micro, small and medium enterprises and project specific funding such as renewable energy or sustainable agriculture. Debt funds fill this gap by providing dedicated long-term debt facilities to financial institutions – which then in turn onlend – or directly to corporates and specific projects.
