Over ons
The Joint Impact Model Foundation was established in 2022 to create credible oversight of the Joint Impact Model (JIM) and its development. Characterized by its harmonized and transparent methodology, the JIM is a model which enables the quantification of jobs supported, value added, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions related to investments of financial institutions with operations in emerging economies. The aim of the JIM is to bring comparability, accountability, and transparency to the financial industry. Using minimum input data such as revenue and power production from investment portfolios, the JIM enables users to estimate financial flows through the economy and its resulting economic (value added), social (employment) and environmental (greenhouse gas emissions) impact. The JIM is a crucial tool in the efforts against climate change, since measuring and reporting on impact in a consistent and comparable way is essential to evaluate progress towards global development needs and priorities, assess effectiveness of investments and drive impactful actions.

🎇 Last week Golomt Bank published their 2023 Sustainable Development report. 🎇 Golomt Bank was established in March 1995 and is now a major player in the social and economic sectors of Mongolia. 🏔 Some of Golomt Bank's key sustainability initiatives include aligning its financing and investment activities with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Leveraging data from the JIM, insights from Golomt Bank's sustainability report encompass figures on 2023 emissions and job data. The Bank reports that a significant portion (47%) of its portfolio emissions originate from the Building and Real Estate sector. 🚛 In the coming years the Bank will aim to transition towards a green loan portfolio in which 10% of its total loan portfolio will consist of green, sustainable loans by 2030. Further, Golomt Bank estimated its portfolio to have supported over 68,000 jobs and added over $543 million (USD) in value to local economies. 👷♀️ Congratulations on your 2023 Sustainability report Golomt Bank!
