Outcome investments
Responding to global challenges and providing return on investment.
Our Outcome Investments are designed to address pressing global challenges while generating positive growth for communities and the planet. We leverage blended finance solutions, where we combine developmental and private capital to scale up impactful initiatives and ensure investor returns.
Outcome Bonds
Our outcome debt solutions are fixed-income securities designed to finance projects that promote peace, stability, and social cohesion. These bonds are part of our commitment to generating positive social outcomes alongside financial returns. Depending on the business or project, the positive impact derives from the business model itself or a more equitable use of proceeds. These strategies help address the root causes of conflict, such as inequality and lack of access to resources and basic services. Investors in outcome bonds benefit from predictable interest payments or KPI-linked returns while knowing their capital is supporting efforts to build more peaceful and resilient communities.
Outcome Equity
Our outcome equity solutions are investments in companies and projects that actively contribute to improving the livelihoods of people. These investments are aimed at businesses that prioritize sustainable and ethical practices and build social responsibility in their business models. By investing in peace equities, investors can participate in the growth of companies committed to making a positive social impact. This approach not only offers potential for capital appreciation but also ensures that investments are aligned with values of peace and social justice.
All our outcome solutions are characterized by:
- Peace focus. Our Outcome Investments prioritize projects that aim to achieve specific social or environmental outcomes, such as youth employability, climate action, gender equality, and social cohesion.
- Risk mitigation and measurable results. We employ rigorous risk and impact measurement methodologies to track the progress and effectiveness of our investments in achieving their intended outcomes.
- Collaborative approach. We partner with a diverse range of stakeholders, including research institutes, NGOs, governments, and local communities, to co-create and implement projects that address complex social and environmental challenges effectively.
- Innovation. We seek out innovative solutions and technologies that have the potential to catalyse positive change at scale, leveraging the power of entrepreneurship and innovation to drive social and environmental progress.
