The purpose of development finance is to support development - but how do we guarantee that our projects have a tangible social impact? This session considers:

  • How do we ensure that funds earmarked for impactful projects are used as intended, and why is measuring impact important?
  • How do we implement compliance and fraud prevention without 'red taping' projects which already struggle to access finance?
  • How do we measure a project's impact, and why is reporting so important?
  • Why should private investment partners be concerned about corruption, and why is it important to report these instances?
