ASN Microkredietfonds

What they do

Established in 1996 by ASN Bank and Oxfam Novib, ASN Microkredietfonds is a pioneering microfinance investment vehicle managed by ASN Impact Investors, with Triple Jump acting as its external project advisor. The fund pools capital from retail and institutional investors to provide senior debt, subordinated debt, and long-term equity to expanding and mature financial service providers across Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. Positioned as an Article 9 fund under the SFDR, it is highly distinctive for its dual mandate of achieving modest, stable financial returns while strictly enforcing social performance standards.

What they look for

The fund's core thesis is "financial inclusion." It invests in MFIs that provide access to financial services (loans, savings, and payment products) for low-income individuals and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in low- and middle-income countries. The goal is to enable these populations to generate income, build financial resilience, and stimulate local economic development.
