🏡 A home is more than just a building—it offers the stability and opportunities necessary for future growth, allowing women to manage businesses from home and providing children with a safe space to play, learn, and grow. In emerging markets, homeownership is particularly crucial as it empowers families to break the cycle of poverty, fosters economic independence, and strengthens communities by providing a foundation for social and economic development. Supported by IFC - International Finance Corporation and IFC’s investee fund Multiples Alternate Asset Management, Vastu Housing Finance Corporation Ltd. — one of the fastest-growing affordable housing finance companies in India — is making homeownership a reality for many, especially women and underserved populations. Learn more about their incredible impact and how they are leveraging technology to close the housing gap: http://wrld.bg/lTIN50VoCxq #AffordableHousing #PrivateEquity #PE #IFCfunds #ImpactInvesting #Fintech #Financialservices IFC Disruptive Tech, VC & Funds, IFC Financial Institutions Riccardo Puliti, Imad N.
