Impact at a critical juncture

Our CEO Sylvia Wisniwski sat down with the team from Convergence to discuss how we at Finance in Motion engage in blended finance, our geographic and sectoral foci, impact measurement, and how we apply a gender lens in our work, and much more.

At Finance in Motion, we’ve long believed that emerging markets hold far more promise than the world gives them credit for.

In her latest conversation with Private Equity International’s Impact Investing Annual Report, our CEO Sylvia Wisniwski dives into why it’s time to challenge outdated notions of risk and rediscover the real potential behind these economies. Drawing on years of hands-on experience in impact investing, Sylvia shares how data, local partnerships, and grounded insight can reveal a very different truth, that emerging markets aren’t defined by volatility, but by resilience, innovation, and opportunity.

If Hollywood taught us anything, it’s that the end of the world usually involves zombies. But what if the apocalypse isn’t hordes of the undead crashing through windows? What if our apocalypse was simply not being able to grow enough food to eat? Imagine a world where supermarket shelves are bare, not because of a storm or a war, but because we simply ran out of topsoil, water, and good ol’ common sense.
