With a firm commitment to sustainability and community upliftment, DGB has developed Impact Loans as a groundbreaking investment vehicle that goes beyond profit margins. It offers a real chance to contribute to global sustainability while securing competitive returns for your portfolio.

What sets Impact Loans apart?

At the core of Impact Loans is the principle of impact investing—where financial capital is used to generate measurable environmental and social outcomes alongside strong financial returns. Unlike traditional investments, which focus solely on monetary gains, Impact Loans are designed to channel funds directly into high-impact nature-based and livelihood projects that restore ecosystems, protect biodiversity, and support local communities around the world.

From planting trees to improving clean water access and promoting sustainable agriculture, Impact Loans are aligned with nature-based solutions that benefit both the environment and society. This balance of impact and financial reward makes these loans an ideal investment for those seeking to align their portfolios with their values.

The Kenya Beehive Project: a case study in impact

Our first standout initiative available through Impact Loans is the Kenya Beehive Project. This project addresses two pressing global issues—biodiversity loss and rural poverty. By providing beehives and expanding sustainable beekeeping practices, the project increases bee populations essential for healthy ecosystems while also providing a vital source of income for Kenyan farmers. 

This project supports the installation of 1,000 beehives across 5,000 hectares, benefiting 200 local farmers and increasing bee populations by 50%. By enhancing pollination and providing honey products that the farmers can sell, the project contributes to a ±2.5% increase in farmers' income, promoting both agricultural productivity and sustainability.

This impact investing project offers bonds priced at €500 each. Investors can expect an annual return on investment (ROI) of 8% for 4 years. Interest payments are made quarterly, providing consistent returns over the course of the investment.

Through your investment, farmers receive beehives and training and the tools they need to sustainably grow their beekeeping operations, which leads to increased honey production, enhanced biodiversity, and a stronger local economy. This is just one of the many examples of how Impact Loans offer both environmental restoration and financial returns.
