Innovative Finance
The Innovative Finance Advisory offers catalytic support by raising and structuring capital for Key Change Agents to scale high-impact programs and institutions in line with Sustainable Development Goals. These change agents include governments, community institutions, social enterprises, and financiers, all of whom often face challenges in accessing and deploying capital effectively to drive systemic change and improve service delivery.
Investment Principles
Spread across the spheres of Livelihoods, Climate and Health with an overlay of Financial Inclusion/ Gender, all our models align with the following principles:
Innovation
We design and structure financial mechanisms—such as outcome-based funding, credit guarantees, and revolving funds—to mobilise blended capital for impact.
Scale
Our blended finance approach enables proven models to grow beyond pilots, unlocking follow-on investments and institutional adoption.
Equity
Every financial structure is designed with inclusion at its core—empowering women, smallholders, informal workers, and marginalised communities to participate fully in value creation.
Resilience
By aligning capital to social, economic, and environmental outcomes, we create systems capable of withstanding shocks and sustaining long-term progress.
