IFAD Impact Report 2022

Hero image

In 2022, IFAD issued its first two sustainable private placements under the highest and most widely accepted environmental, social and governance international standards for this type of debt capital market instrument.

With its first Impact Report – which is aligned with ICMA’s Harmonised Framework for Impact Reporting for Social Bonds – IFAD demonstrates how the proceeds of these private placement issuances have been invested in rural people, in particular smallholder farmers who are key to global food security and account for the majority of food production in some regions.

As the only development finance institution that focuses exclusively on rural transformation, IFAD is well positioned to play a key role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.
