Envest Microfinance
We provide financing to local microfinance institutions that generate social and environmental benefits in 10+ countries. Envest was founded by Jon Bishop in 2006 with the intention of creating a source of financing for very small microfinance institutions (Tier 3 MFIs) as well as a tool for investors to merge their financial portfolios and their philanthropic goals.

Over the past year, Envest Microfinance partnered with 24 microfinance institutions across 12 countries to deliver meaningful impact. In 2025, our partner MFIs expanded their outreach to underserved populations, with notable increases in both female and rural borrowers compared to the previous year. The share of female clients rose from 56% to 61%, while rural clients grew from 62% to 69%, reflecting progress in reaching groups that typically face significant barriers to accessing credit. This would not have been possible without our incredible investors who see a return on capital while contributing to a meaningful impact.

Last year Envest Microfinance has worked with 22 microfinance institutions in 12 countries to make a difference. We think of impact as bringing positive changes in the lives of people who now have access to finance that can help their community and the environment. For example, our partner Asociacion Arariwa in Peru serves over 70% female clients who typically encounter significant obstacles to accessing credit. In Nicaragua, most of Pana Pana’s borrowers are Indigenous, while RUFI provides essential financial services to South Sudanese war refugees living in Uganda. For many of our partner MFIs, Envest is their first connection to international lending. None of this would be possible without our incredible investors who see a return on capital while contributing to a meaningful impact.
