Community Investment Note®

We finance businesses building a better future

Our Community Investment Note® (the Note) portfolio is comprised of organizations that address critical community and environmental needs around the world. Affordable housing, renewable energy, small business finance, sustainable agriculture and more, we invest in sectors and geographies whose needs are not met by traditional capital markets.

The Note portfolio is diversified and dynamic; we continuously add new organizations into our portfolio and successfully graduate​ others out. Since 1995, we’ve made over 1,000 loans and investments to more than 550 organizations across 100+ countries, supporting hundreds of thousands of businesses and improving millions of lives around the world.

Our investment approach goes beyond individual transactions. With every deal, we deliberately work to build the infrastructure required to move more capital to places that need it most. Learn more about some of the landmark transactions​ we've invested in.
