Impact Investment Exchange Asia (IIX) will be the world’s first social stock exchange, a trading platform and an efficient capital-raising mechanism for Social Enterprises (SEs -- which micro finance entities are a part of) in Asia, including both for profit and not-for-profit entities with a social mission. IIX will connect these SEs with impact investors seeking to achieve both a social return and an economic return while providing capital to fund innovative social businesses. IIX is itself a Social Enterprise with a social mission: to provide greater access to capital for SEs in Asia. This will allow them to grow more rapidly and expand their impact. IIX will bring together SEs and impact investors that prize the social value they create. It will benefit impact investors by giving them access to a group of investment-ready SEs with strong corporate governance practices and a commitment to transparent reporting of both financial and social results, and by providing a source of liquidity.
