CSR AND IMPACTS

Our ambitions

PROPARCO has the mandate to galvanize private investments with the aim of supporting growth, sustainable development and the achievement of the Millenium Development Goals.

In 2009, Proparco signed the “Principles for Responsible Financing” adopted by the different European Development Finance Institutions. These principles highlight the positive role that these institutions wish to play in terms of:

-   management of the environmental and social risks linked to the operations financed,
 
-  contribution to the improvement of the quality of the projects and of the environmental and social performance of the investee companies,
 
-   measurement of the positive impacts of the projects on development.
 
As such, Proparco’s ambition, along the same lines as the EDFI, is effectively to promote responsible financing.
