The future of Impact investing
Imagine a world where all impact projects get funded within a matter of weeks
Our Mission
We are far from reaching the SDGs. All impactful projects, regardeless of their size, geography or sector should find their financing more easily. Connecting them quickly to a wide variety of investors is critical.
Our objective is to facilitate the issuance of impact project bonds under the highest international financial and impact standards and create a reliable and cost-efficient link between investors and impact projects.
The Imagine impact bond platform will promote the financing of specific SDGs through dedicated SDG windows developed in partnership with internationally recognised institutions.
By doing so, we aim to:
Contribute to the mainstreaming of impact finance
Improve ESG & impact management practices
Facilitate a meaningful contribution to the UN SDGs

The Framework
Imagine has drawn up an “Impact Financing Framework” that serves as a framework for
monitoring the sustainability quality of the projects financed by issuing
green, social and impact financing instruments.
This document is the general Framework of the Imagine Impact Bonds. It has been drafted in accordance with the International Capital Market Association (ICMA) Green Bond Principles (2021), Social Bond Principles (June 2021) and Sustainability Bond Guidelines (June 2018). It provides Imagine with the ability to issue either Green Bonds, Social Bonds or Sustainability Bonds as defined by the ICMA principles and guidelines.
In line with best market practice, Innpact has commissioned Ethifinance, expert in extra-financial evaluation, to carry out an independent critical review of its Framework. The present second party opinion focuses on the assessment of Originator ESG maturity evaluation by Imagine and selection process of originators by Imagine, and the compliance level of the Framework with the ICMA’s Green Bond principles and guidelines.
