BlueOrchard Says Japan Clients Seeking Impact Investments Abroad

Japanese investors are seeking overseas opportunities as they boost impact investments, according to Schroders Group’s BlueOrchard Finance Ltd., which applies the strategy primarily in emerging markets.

Assets under management from Japanese investors at the firm have expanded more than fourfold over the past three years to ¥150 billion ($998 million) and account for roughly a fifth of the firm’s global impact investments.
