Five dimensions of impact in practice: BRAC Tanzania Finance Limited, Tanzania (case study)

Assessing impact beyond access to finance

At BlueOrchard, every investment is assessed through our proprietary B.Impact™ Framework, which evaluates both impact and ESG performance. Using the five dimensions of impact – What, How Much, Who, Contribution and Risk – we seek to understand not only who is reached, but also how investments contribute to meaningful outcomes.

Financial inclusion in action

BRAC Tanzania Finance Limited is one of the country’s leading providers of financial services to underserved populations, particularly women and rural entrepreneurs. Through group-based microloans, agricultural financing and financial literacy training, the institution helps clients invest in productive activities, generate income and strengthen their resilience.

From capital to outcomes

This case study demonstrates how responsible finance can support economic opportunity and long-term resilience. It is one of several examples featured in the latest Impact Report of BlueOrchard’s flagship microfinance strategy, highlighting how financial inclusion can contribute to sustainable development across emerging and frontier markets.
