    Bamboo Finance manages more than 33 direct investments in more than 20 emerging and frontier market countries. Our mission is to fund entrepreneurs and organizations who have found innovative, profitable ways to improve people’s lives, bring affordable services to low-income communities, and create financial inclusion while providing investors with returns. Our annual report provides insights into the impact achieved by our portfolio.

    This report includes many examples of organizations which are demonstrating that it is possible to
    successfully achieve both. From our work in financial inclusion serving over 7.7 million clients in 23 countries to a network of hospitals in India that brings basic health care to neglected rural and semi-urban areas with 17 hospitals serving more than 280’000 to a renewable energy company in Bihar, India, that converts discarded rice husks into electricity for remote rural villages with 74 plants that are providing electricity to over 200’000 people, the organizations in this report not only reflect the growth and progress of our portfolio, but also the dedication and expertise of the Bamboo
    team.

    We hope that you find this report informative and inspiring, and we encourage you to check
