A pioneer in solidarity investment in the South and East, SIDI publishes its annual report
SIDI and Crédit Coopératif are pleased to announce the strengthening of their partnership in the service of solidarity finance.
By acquiring a stake in Inpulse Investment Manager, a microfinance fund management company and subsidiary of Crédit Coopératif, SIDI will be able to expand its range of services for its partners in developing countries. This will give SIDI considerable additional leverage to attract new investors via the impact funds it will be developing with Inpulse and Crédit Coopératif.
SIDI promotes finance that serves integral, socially just and ecologically sustainable development, based on the values of solidarity, trust, ethics and transparency. Its private and institutional shareholders give it the means to carry out its activities, and in return expect added value that is exclusively human, social and environmental.
This year’s Social and Environmental Review looks back over the four years of SIDI’s 2017-2020 Strategic Plan.
A wealth of information and figures highlighting the importance of the two pillars on which SIDI’s action towards its partners is based: financing and support.
