Value proposition

International network working for more transparent, sustainable, fair and responsible investing by the financial sector.

Fair Finance International believes that responsible investing with a sustainable outlook is a powerful tool to tackle many of the world's biggest challenges - from poverty to climate change.

We enable consumers and policy holders to insist that financial institutions become more socially responsible, fair, and sustainable, by benchmarking investment policies and investigating practices in critical areas such as human rights and climate impact. We use a rigorous assessment methodology aligned to international standards, and through our diverse and influential network of 100 + organisations we campaign and advocate for better practices and greater transparency.

Fair Finance International is currently active in 20 countries - Bangladesh, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Cambodia, Colombia, Ghana, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines, Sweden, Southern Africa, Thailand, Uganda and Vietnam. Fair Finance International collaborates and partners with Fair Finance Asia, a regional network of over 70 Asian civil society organizations committed to ensuring that financial institutions’ funding decisions in the region respect the social and environmental well-being of local communities.

Through our cross-collaboration we support sustainable financing initiatives and knowledge sharing and strengthen the evidence base in cases of harmful investments to better hold financial institutions to account. By connecting these diverse national, regional and global perspectives the Fair Finance network as a whole can advise on and advocate for meaningful changes to financing systems, with positive results for citizens and communities.
