Impact Fund Denmark

Impact Fund Denmark is a Danish development finance institution established in 1967, dedicated to promoting sustainable growth and addressing global challenges through strategic investments. The institution manages over DKK 18.1 billion in capital and has an active portfolio of 183 companies across more than 45 countries, with a strong presence in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and parts of Europe. Their investments span various sectors, including renewable energy, healthcare, sustainable food systems, and inclusive financial services, aiming to create long-term social, economic, and environmental value.

The fund's investment strategy focuses on mobilizing private capital to tackle global challenges where the need is greatest. They invest in companies at various stages, from early-stage ventures to established enterprises, and across multiple industries such as pharmaceuticals, renewable energy, healthcare, financial services, infrastructure, technology, agriculture, education, water and sanitation, transport, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, media, and real estate. This diverse approach enables them to address systemic challenges and support resilient economies worldwide.

In June 2025, Impact Fund Denmark rebranded from the Investment Fund for Developing Countries (IFU) to reflect its international outlook and global partnerships. The rebranding is accompanied by a plan to double its capital base to DKK 36 billion by 2030, highlighting its commitment to sustainable development and impact investing. The fund's mission is to create lasting impact by addressing systemic challenges, supporting resilient economies, and empowering progress toward a more sustainable and inclusive world.
