Goparity has partnered with UNDP AltFinLab, a United Nations initiative at the forefront of alternative finance, to strengthen how we measure and report impact in crowdlending.
We led a structured review of our impact management framework, with technical mentorship from the UN.
The work covered three phases: aligning our impact objectives with measurable indicators, updating our project categories, and improving how we collect and manage data. The result is a more transparent and more SDG-aligned framework.

A rigorous review
Impact cannot rely on intention alone. It must be measurable, comparable, and credible.
🗂️ Project categories
Our updated project categories bring a new level of clarity and rigour to the way we classify and compare investments. Each category is now more precisely defined, more directly aligned with global impact priorities, and easier to compare across projects - so you always know exactly what kind of change your money is contributing to.
Most importantly, every category is now more directly connected to the UN's 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, anchoring every project on Goparity to the international framework that defines what a better world actually looks like.
📊 Project indicators
Our new framework is built on the Theory of Change, tracing direct project outputs through to long-term, real-world impact.
Now, we can track 24 outputs, 23 outcomes and 22 impact indicators across three structured levels. The result is a clearer measurement logic, a more transparent link between projects and real-world outcomes, and better impact reporting.
Why we took this step
This collaboration is an important step for Goparity. It allows us to reinforce the methodological foundations of our impact framework and ensure that our growth is matched by equally robust impact standards. As sustainable finance evolves, so must the standards behind it. We are committed to being on the right side of that evolution, and this is our clear stance against impact washing.
"As sustainable finance continues to evolve, strengthening transparency, accountability and methodological clarity becomes increasingly important. Through AltFinLab, we support ecosystem actors so they can refine impact measurement approaches that align financial innovation with broader sustainable development objectives."
Teodor Petricevic - Accelerator Lead, UNDP AltFinLab
What to expect next
While our Impact team is already using the new framework, we know you still can't see these changes when you log into Goparity. Over the coming months, our development, design, and product teams will work to bring these new categories and indicators to life directly on the platform.
We are committed to continually improving how we monitor, measure, and communicate impact, and we see this as an ongoing journey that we build with our community.
We partnered with the United Nations Development Programme to raise the bar on how we measure, report, and stand behind our impact - so you can invest with even more confidence.
