Before coming to Oxford, Henry held positions in the fields of social finance and economic development at the Global Exchange for Social Investment (GEXSI) in London, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in San José, and the World Bank in Washington D.C. Prior to that, he obtained an MPA from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government where he was a Fulbright Scholar. His earlier career was in public policy in his home country of Costa Rica where he served as Chief of Staff to the Minister of Agriculture and as a Legislative Advisor to the Vice President of the Legislative Assembly after obtaining a BA in Political Science from the University of Costa Rica.
Since completing his Oxford MBA as a Skoll Scholar, Henry held his first position in the private sector becoming an intrapreneur within Morgan Stanley where he focused in Emerging Markets and Microfinance Debt Investing and collaborated with the Bank’s Global Sustainable Finance efforts. This led him to focus his career in impact investing and he is currently the Head of Research of responsAbility Investments based in Paris. He is also an Associate Fellow at Oxford University’s Saïd Business School linked to the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship.
