Advancing the UN Sustainable Development Goals

ZGF was created to help close the financing gap for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Last year, however, that gap grew wider as wealthy countries pulled back from long-standing commitments, cutting more than $40 billion in development assistance. Against that harsh backdrop, the results in this year’s Zero Gap Fund: 2025 State of the Portfolio show how impact investing remains a much-needed force for progress across a range of impact areas.
