🌏 Financial inclusion is an important subset of the financial services sector, which 46% of impact investors allocation some AUM to, according to 2023 GIIN research. That’s why we created the financial inclusion impact performance benchmark, where investors can track their impact relative to global ambitions, other investors and their own past performance. 💸 Through the financial inclusion impact performance benchmark available on the GIIN website, investors can gain an understanding of what “good” looks like, and see when their investments are exceeding industry standards, or missing the mark. To receive personalized analytics and information about your impact performance, you can privately submit your data through IRIS+. 📊 Interested in comparing your performance for other sectors? Let us know what benchmarks you'd like to see in the future, and stay tuned for forestry and healthcare benchmarks coming later this year! https://bit.ly/4cL9PuI
