FMO finances

more established parties
still in need of appropriate funding (Corporates and Financial Intermediaries).

and less established parties or ventures
with high risk / innovative plans (good potential to become financially sustainable)
with very good potential to create social impact : innovations, showcases, potential for upscaling, etc.

and FMO provides funding for technical assistance


Within FMO I look after the Micro and SME end of the markets (with a portfolio of almost EUR 500 mln)
and our funding for Capacity Development (a few mln EUR per year).
Examples range from the First leasing company in country X, a new SME guarantee fund in country Y,
the first investment in Zimbabwe, local currency loans in many countries, convertible debt, even
convertible grants, future equity for NGO’s that strive to become an NBFI, interest reduction when
certain social targets have been achieved, support for Board Seats, training for MFI employees, etc, etc.
FMO is not alone

We collaborate with many other financiers, development banks, commercial banks, etc.

Our role, our added value is crucial. Our aim is to convene others.

Financial and Social returns enhance each other

Find the balance and positive connection between the two

Dow Jones Sustainability Index (KLM, DSM, Philips, PostNL and Unilever )

clear positive link between healthy financial and healthy social returns
Important to better measure and show the social returns, the outcomes and impact of our work

We need our partners in the field

better choices based on the non-financials as well

Avoid the Harm and target the Good : many Profits – many People – just One Planet
Only jointly we can create more Public Good and less Market Failure !
