ERFIP develops a cogent voice for private philanthropy and sustainable investment in frontier markets.

We serve as a hub where distinct regional realities and local expertise meet, creating an engaged network of over 200 families across four continents.

We are committed to the principle that effective development rests first with the local private sector, which possesses the deepest understanding of its own environment.

By applying a business mindset to giving and to purposeful investment, our community ensures that capital remains agile and turns opportunities into growth and positive impact.

Our network focuses on key challenges such as climate transition, entrepreneurship, youth empowerment or gender equity, and demonstrates the strength of local asset owners.

ERFIP functions as a community of trust from frontier markets and as a strategic bridge to global funders so that together they ensure that resources are allocated effectively and aligns with local needs and solutions.
