What is Pay for Success?

Pay for Success (PFS) is a set of innovative outcomes-based financing strategies that directly and measurably improve the lives of people in need by driving resources toward results. These strategies share five core principles: clearly defined outcomes, data-driven decision making,  cross-sector partnership, strong governance and accountability, and catalytic capital for impact. Social Finance brought the Social Impact Bond to the U.S. in 2013 and launched the first-ever Career Impact Bond in 2019.
