Fund’s objective

• We believe that long-lasting development builds on economies that allow low-income

consumers, producers, and workers to operate in a fair and inclusive marketplace

• The Fund’s objective is to contribute to the development of such a marketplace, serving

the unmet needs of low-income communities

• We select and support pioneering companies whose success will spur the creation of

new markets and industries, thus creating a multiplier effect on the Fund’s initial investment

• While pursuing returns as high as possible we are conscious that investing in a nascent

industry in fragile economies comes at a cost, and companies delivering solutions to low-income families’ unmet basic needs may not achieve risk-adjusted-returns

• Attractive upsides are expected in the most efficient industries and in countries where a

socially-minded private sector is more established. Investments will be made across sectors and countries to maximize social and financial returns

TO PRODUCE returns for investors Creating an inclusive marketplace

The management team has put in place strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) processes, and is supported by independent investment committee members as well as an advisory committee of senior professionals nominated by the Fund’s largest shareholders.
