How we invest and build
Target Growth
We invest in financial institutions and enterprises that can significantly expand access to safe water and sanitation among low-income families.
We target investments in financial institutions and enterprises that have significant capacity for scale, a strong financial track record, and a deep reach into underserved communities.
Evaluate Risk and Returns
We mitigate risk by spreading assets over multiple geographies, business models, and market segments.
We thoroughly evaluate and consider social as well as financial risk and returns in our investment decision making.
Set Standards
We invest in financial institutions and enterprises that support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 and are committed to sustainable and equitable environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices.
Measure Success
We manage our portfolio’s impact with the same rigor as our financial performance and establish impact targets for each investment.
We monitor our investments using both IRIS-aligned metrics as well as surveys of the families who benefit from access to safe water and sanitation.
