Invest in Good
Help more women to be financially resilient through good times and bad.
What we do
Joining the Good Return community means you are part of our work to enable women and their families to access opportunity and build financial security.
Ethical loans
We enable entrepreneurs to access safe and responsible finance so they can start or grow their business. Small loans go directly to microbusinesses to fix a roof or buy new stock - our larger investments boost socially-driven SMEs so they can drive economic growth and employment.
Financial education
Using a behaviour change approach, we provide education in money management and business skills to empower low income women and the financially excluded. Face-to-face training is done on the ground by our experienced team, and we reach millions more people with our campaigns.
A fairer financial sector
Financial inclusion starts within the sector, and we use our strategic partnerships to build more inclusive financial practices and services in banks, and financial organisations. Our innovative e-learning platform RIF Academy is an effective way to train staff in social inclusion principles and practices.
