Investing for financial inclusion

Through our commitment to impact investing, and in collaboration with numerous private and public-sector partners, we contribute to supporting the growth, viability and governance of inclusive financial institutions that work to make secure financial services available to millions of clients and their families, and to adapt them to their needs. Our resources are directed where they are likely to have the most impact: in small institutions that focus on the sustainable inclusion of women and marginalized populations in Latin America, Africa and Asia. We hope to use finance to create a more equitable, inclusive and greener world. To learn more: www.did.qc.ca.
