Oikocredit - sustainable investments

Oikocredit is one of the world's largest sources of private funding to the microfinance sector around the world. In over 70 developing countries, Oikocredit provides credit and equity to small businesses through microfinance institutions across the developing world and directly to trade cooperatives, fair trade organizations and small-to-medium sized enterprises (SMEs).

Oikocredit offers a dual return to its investors: financial and social. In addition to earning modest financial returns, investors are secure in the knowledge that their money is being used to fight poverty, promote fair trade and respect our planet's natural resources. (www.oikocredit.org)
