IIF Unveils Report to Track Inclusive Capital Commitments

Iyke Bede

​The Impact Investors Foundation (IIF) has unveiled ‘The Inclusive Capital Scorecard: GESI Baseline Survey,’ a benchmark report aimed at tracking gender equality and social inclusion practices across Nigeria’s impact investment ecosystem, as stakeholders seek to move beyond broad commitments on inclusive financing toward measurable outcomes for women, youths and persons with disabilities.

​Launched during the 4th Gender Impact Investment Summit (GIIS) in Lagos, the report builds on commitments made at previous editions of the summit, where more than 50 organisations pledged support for inclusive capital deployment.

This year’s summit, themed ‘From Commitment to Action: Strengthening Inclusive Gender Lens Investment for Nigeria’s Growth,’ focused on translating those commitments into accountability frameworks capable of measuring investment impact, financing gaps and inclusion outcomes across sectors.
