01Develop projects to bankability
We identify commercially viable projects that need capital or development expertise to progress. We combine equity or quasi-equity financing with our team’s experience and network to help bring these projects to a bankable stage.
On behalf of the Fund, we arrange debt and equity finance and negotiate financing and project-completion success fees.
02Support established businesses
We invest in established businesses seeking to expand, implement a new strategy or navigate a sale or divestment within our target sectors.
The investment structure responds to the business, its stage of development and its long-term capital requirements.
03Build enduring value
Our model allows for partial exits through fees and equity sales, alongside retained equity interests in project companies that can provide long-term income streams for pension fund investors.
Across the investment lifecycle, we seek broad-based participation and positive outcomes for communities and the environment.
04 / OUR IMPACTPEOPLE. COMMUNITIES. ENVIRONMENT.
Progress that reaches further.
Financial discipline and positive social and environmental outcomes belong in the same investment conversation.
We seek investments with meaningful social and economic impact, with a particular focus on women, young people and socially disadvantaged communities. The Fund’s relationship with the National Youth Council supports its focus on youth representation and participation.
Our strength is measured in our professionals, our presence, our partners and our projects.
