[RESPONSE TO COVID-19] IIX is launching an Emergency Financing Facility Impact Investment Exchange (IIX) info@iixglobal.com via gmail.mcsv.net IIX Emergency Financing Facility While businesses around the world are grappling with the realities of COVID-19, we at IIX are continuing on with our work of unlocking capital for high-impact SMEs and safeguarding investments for our impact investors through Impact Partners and the Women’s Livelihood Bond Series™. The question is: How long can we stay ahead of the curve? Our enterprises are not completely immune to the global economy, which will take a hit of over a trillion dollars in 2020. Our surveys indicate that over 74.4% of SMEs in our network will require additional capital in the coming months to keep them on course with their growth and impact plans. In response, IIX is launching the Emergency Financing Facility, a revolving facility providing refundable grants and working capital loans to select high-impact SMEs, and creating over 70,000 livelihoods over the next 5 years.
