Investing in Women, Driving Impact

FinDev Canada produced a report titled “Investing in Women, Driving Impact”, which shares findings from our first independent impact evaluation, conducted by Kore Global, to examine gender-related outcomes across our investment portfolio. The evaluation focused on two objectives: assessing the effectiveness of FinDev Canada’s current strategy in advancing gender impact and informing its approach. It examines how the 2X Criteria have influenced gender outcomes, highlights key enablers for achieving impact at the transaction level, and offers recommendations to strengthen institutional practices.
