In August 2019, JICA became the first Japanese signatory to “Operating Principles for Impact Management”, founded by IFC. These principles provide a framework for investing in organizations that seek not only financial returns but also measurable social and environmental impact.
JICA has also endorsed the “Japan Impact-driven Financing Initiative” . JICA will help accelerate impact-driven financing investment across Japan’s financial sector.
Together with its partner Japanese financial institutions, JICA has developed a Sustainable Finance Framework and is working to promote sustainable finance in developing countries.
