Fair Finance International

Overview

The objective of the project is to contribute to reduced poverty, promotion of human rights, gender equality and sustainability in the global South through FFI's monitoring tool.

Fair Finance International (FFI) is an international network of over 150 civil society organizations. The FFI network is currently active in 24 countries across 4 continents. In many intervention countries, national and regional Fair Finance Coalitions engage on the policies and practices of financial institutions both nationally and abroad. The intention is to strengthen the commitment of financial institutions to environmental, social, governance (ESG), transparency and other human rights-related aspects.

Example activities of Fair Finance International are:

  1. FFI developed and uses a methodology for policy assessments to benchmark the investment policies of financial institutions in critical areas such as human rights and climate impact. Regular national assessments are published.
  2. FFI regularly publishes case studies where the operational practices, strategies and instruments of financial institutions are investigated more in depth and investments and financial services are evaluated.
