How we work

The ongoing mission is to keep tackling the world’s most serious challenges. Innovation is at the heart of BlueOrchard's approach, as the organisation uses its access to leading expertise, new technology, and broad networks to find new solutions to shared problems. BlueOrchard is convinced that sound impact measurement and management tools are a prerequisite for achieving both a positive and sustainable impact and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

... and why

Across the world and, particularly, in emerging and frontier markets, individuals excluded from financial services are among the poorest of the population. BlueOrchard’s support for a sound, sustainable, and inclusive financial sector is thus crucial to reach the underserved, thanks to investments that support job creation, female empowerment, and reduction of inequalities. Furthermore, BlueOrchard supports climate action and fair education.
