Abstract

In recent years, very little industry research has focused on Latin America despite active and growing communities of impact investors in many of the region’s countries. This report is a step towards filling that knowledge gap, and maps the landscape of impact investing in Latin America. The report opens with a regional analysis of broad trends in fundraising, deals, and exits, along with a special focus on pipeline development, technical assistance, impact measurement, talent, and gender. Following this overview is a series of deep dives into impact investing in three key markets where the industry is most active or developed: Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.
