Launched in 2023, the BlueOrchard Latin America and the Caribbean Gender, Diversity and Inclusion Fund (LAC GDI) is a blended finance vehicle designed to expand financial inclusion for underserved groups across the region, including women, indigenous peoples, Afro-descendants, migrants, and other marginalized populations. Managed by BlueOrchard (part of Schroders Capital) with support from Global Affairs Canada and IDB Invest, the fund seeks to mobilize USD 200 million by providing debt capital to financial institutions that serve these communities. Its strategy, presented here, combines investment with a dedicated TA facility to strengthen gender, diversity, and inclusion (GDI) practices and improve impact measurement. Classified as an Article 9 sustainable investment fund under the EU’s SFDR, LAC GDI demonstrates how gender-lens investing can be scaled through innovative blended finance structures in the LAC region.
