Monitoring

impacts of our interventions

INTRODUCTION This yearly exercise is geared to monitoring effective economic, social and environmental impacts of projects that are financially supported by Proparco (debt, equity and guarantees excluding ARIZ/EURIZ). The monitoring of Proparco’s portfolio focusses on four key indicators Proparco has embedded in its strategy and makes it possible to compare effective impacts with ex-ante estimates:

Created and/or maintained jobs

Proparco monitors the impact of projects it finances on the creation and maintaining of direct and indirect jobs.

Gender equality

Fight against climate change

Proparco finances projects that contribute to female employment and leadership and access to essential goods and services for women. The 2X Challenge initiative qualifies projects dedicated to these goals.

Proparco finances renewable energies and measures each Ren project’s contribution to the fight against climate change by calculating their carbon footprint (which enables the evaluation of tCO2eq avoided per project).

Access to essential goods and services Proparco monitors how projects impact access to essential goods and services, notably education, electricity, water and sanitation, healthcare services and financial inclusion.

In 2021, our monitoring exercise covered impacts achieved at the end of 2020 through projects signed between 2015 and 2019. In total, 273 projects (for 254 unique clients) were signed over this period for a total amount of 4.9 billion euros.
