OUR IMPACT VISION
We aspire to live in a world of widespread financial wellness. Thus, we seek to cultivate financial products that allow lower and middle income borrowers to achieve financial resilience and/or seize an opportunity.
Measurement
We directly measure impact by applying GIIN’s widely accepted IRIS+ indicators that are formally mapped to UN SDGs and thus broadly comparable. IRIS+ Indicators Reported on by Accial Capital are formally mapped to the following UN SDGs.
Operationalization
We focus our investments in portfolios of loan products that generate resilience (income smoothing) and/or opportunity for end borrowers. All prospective lending platform partners must pass our Responsible Lending Framework to be eligible for investment. Adherence to the product focus and framework is overseen by Accial Capital’s Impact Management Committee.
Accial Capital is a signatory to the Responsible Finance Forum Investor Guidelines and is a member of the Global Impact Investing Network. Our membership signifies a commitment to deepening our engagement in the impact investing industry.
