ESG scorecard
Before any organization becomes an Oikocredit project partner, it is measured against a number of social performance criteria. Oikocredit has developed a screening process, an ESG (environment, social, governance) scorecard, that reflects Oikocredit's core social selection criteria with clear client protection principles, and vigorous environmental and governance criteria. This is a key step to ensure the right target groups are reached.
As part of the regular screening process, project partners must share details on interest rates they charge on their main financial products. Using its network of partners and field staff, and comparing the interest rates to what is standard practice in the region, Oikocredit determines whether the interest rate is acceptable.
