BlueOrchard has launched their Inclusion Fund, a private equity strategy.

The fund aims to improve the accessibility of financial services to low-income individuals and connect entrepreneurs in growth markets with investors. The SFDR Article 9 compliant fund will invest in companies operating in the fields of microfinance, MSME financing, micro-insurance, and technology.

“Our latest private equity fund offers investors the opportunity to invest in high-quality institutions, that we have identified during our 20-year journey of driving financial inclusion in some of the fastest growing markets. This strategy enables us to further accelerate the expansion and digitization of leading financial institutions, while driving the inclusion of millions of entrepreneurs and individuals in the financial system,” said Philipp Mueller, BlueOrchard’s CEO.
