Global Partnerships Case Study: Measuring and Managing Financial Inclusion Outcomes

Abstract

Global Partnerships, a nonprofit impact-first fund manager, has developed an approach to impact measurement and management (IMM) that prioritizes development and intermediate outcomes. This case study explores how Global Partnerships integrates outcomes data throughout its investment cycle to inform strategy, portfolio construction, and portfolio management, showcasing how it enables financial inclusion outcomes through investments and manages impact risks.

The case study also highlights critical enablers for effectively integrating outcomes into IMM, such as leadership commitment, integrated impact and financial due diligence, collaborative stakeholder relationships, and a continuous learning approach.
