BlueMark’s analysis highlights Finance in Motion’s data infrastructure, innovative approaches to integrating impact and ESG, and governance structures. “With our proprietary platforms fimpact and fimtelligence, we have built digital systems that enable consistent, reliable, and transparent data collection and impact analysis,” says Milena Bertram, Chief Sustainability Officer at Finance in Motion. In addition, sophisticated scoring methods support both ex-ante assessments and ongoing monitoring. “Our funds are also recognized for the added value they provide to portfolio companies and investees through complementary advisory services,” Bertram adds.

BlueMark’s annual publication Making the Mark is considered one of the most important reference points for quality and transparency in impact management among impact investors. “Our continued presence in the Impact Practice Leaderboard is not only a recognition, but also a signal to investors and stakeholders worldwide,” says Bertram.
