Transformative investment opportunities

Investing for real world change

Impact investing is rapidly evolving. We are strong advocates of its increasingly vital role in addressing social and environmental challenges while generating financial returns for investors.

Our expertise

With dedicated impact resources we are further broadening our investment horizons, spanning private markets impact-focused offerings including private credit, as well as blended finance which combines development funding with private capital and often in emerging markets. At the same time, we are actively exploring opportunities in public markets.

Our approach: Four pillars of our proprietary impact framework

Assessing and measuring the delivery of impact in a robust and credible way is essential. For our blended finance strategies we align with the impact methodologies of our development finance partners, while for our impact-focused strategies in developed markets, we apply a proprietary impact framework which covers four broad pillars. This approach guides our investments and contributes to wider industry thinking on impact investing.

Establish impact objectives which target key societal challenges in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.


Assess the significance and contribution of potential investments by applying our own impact scoring system.


Identify core impact key performance indicators to measure and report against with the aim of demonstrating impact delivery.


Test and learn continuously to inform future impact investments in both private and public markets.

Scaling sustainable energy

As one of the first asset managers to use a blended finance funding model, we have invested in the recapitalisation and scaling-up of a company operating wind, solar and hydro projects across an emerging market region.

Healthier harvests ahead

We have invested in a producer of biologicals-based solutions for effective agricultural pest control. By reducing the risks of chemical pesticides, this company generates positive and social impacts through safeguarding biodiversity and human health, meeting the criteria of our private markets impact framework.

Upskilling for success

In seeking projects aligned to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we have invested in a professional training provider designed to aid the successful reintegration of unemployed individuals into the labour market, addressing SDG 4: quality education and SDG 8: decent work and economic growth.
