Shownotes
Today we introduce something Criterion has been working on for years in partnership with various funders, but which has only started to really take shape more recently: the system of Standards of Practice, which looks at how to address power, privilege and bias across systems of finance. These are a particular focus of Criterion’s because we believe they are a missing piece of the implementation puzzle – one which has been holding back gender lens investing and other fields in innovative finance from achieving the impact they are focused on.
