Each positive impact bond, including green, social and sustainability bonds, delivers targeted, real-world benefit to the climate and/or communities through market-rate investments both domestically and internationally.
How it works
Supporting the good in the world
Through the Praxis Impact Bond Fund, we invest in bonds that finance projects around the world. These bonds receive competitive financial returns, and have a clear, direct impact on the world. Investments include renewable energy projects, green bonds, low-income housing, education, social bonds and medical research. Our goal is impact, and we want to buy as many positive impact bonds as possible while still meeting our yield and diversification criteria.

Founding principles
Why positive impact bonds?
Since 1994, we have shaped our approach to impact by asking the question "What more can we do?" – and integrating new strategies as they emerge over time.
We are guided by our core values, seeking to hold in tension a responsibility for the productive use of financial resources and a deep-seated concern for the individuals, communities and environments impacted by our investment choices.
