For more than a quarter century, SEDF has occupied a unique place in the impact investment world. Free from the requirements of external and commercial investors, SEDF can lean into areas of market and political risk in exchange for impact across regions and themes in support of democracy and open society.  SEDF also leverages the expertise and reach of the Open Society Foundations’ programmatic grant-making, policy, and advocacy efforts, and multiple grades of investment capital—to bring a full suite of resources to bear on a particular issue. SEDF works closely with external partners across the nonprofit, public, and private sectors to strengthen individual investments and support Open Society’s larger mission and vision.
