Investing for real world change

Blended finance – debt

Blended finance is a technique used to enable commercial investors to access emerging markets debt opportunities in a scalable and de-risked way, thereby supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Blended finance strategies can allow professional investors to tap into this new asset class of impactful investments and focus on investing in sectors and geographies that are under-represented in public markets. We believe such strategies can provide investors with de-risked, uncorrelated returns in emerging markets.

Investing involves risk. The value of an investment and the income from it may fall as well as rise and investors might not get back the full amount invested. Past performance does not predict future returns. If the currency in which the past performance is displayed differs from the currency of the country in which the investor resides, then the investor should be aware that due to the exchange rate fluctuations the performance shown may be higher or lower if converted into the investor’s local currency.
