The development of the rhino Impact Bond is an initiative of United for Wildlife (UfW), itself a partnership between seven of the world’s leading wildlife charities and The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Implementation of the RII project is led by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), and the project is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), through its implementing agent, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the UK Government through the IWT Challenge Fund, UfW, and ZSL. The RII project receives support on technical conservation, conservation finance, and legal issues from Credit Suisse, DLA Piper, Fauna & Flora International, the IUCN/SSC African and Asian Rhino Specialist Groups, Kenya Wildlife Service, The Nature Conservancy, Conservation Capital, Conservation Alpha, WWF-UK, and UBS Wealth Management UK.
