OUR STRATEGY

In the past few years, global developments and changing stakeholder expectations and regulations have affected FMO’s impact agenda such that we felt the need to review our ambitions and strategic priorities towards 2030.

Our Strategy towards 2030: Pioneer - Develop - Scale, derives its name from our progression model. It shows our long-term commitment to companies, supporting them from an initial high-risk phase to the point where commercial investors can (partially) take over from FMO.
