Portfolio Strategy

We aim to serve sectors and regions that are often overlooked or underserved by the traditional capital markets. We invest debt capital through and alongside intermediary organizations and structures. We work with our borrowers to understand their specific needs and risks and customize our capital to best serve them.

We focus our investments on strengthening financial intermediaries and community development financial institutions (CDFIs) to allow capital to flow efficiently between the capital markets and impact credit markets and between impact credit markets and credit consumers. These two levels, although often overlooked, are critical to address our industry’s lack of infrastructure and intermediation.

The social and environmental mission of our portfolio is guided by our nine impact sectors. These sectors are shaped and ever-evolving by a maturing impact investing industry and macroeconomic shifts that affect these markets. Each sector has a unique impact thesis and strategy that outlines what change we seek in that sector, how we plan to measure impact, and what role our capital plays in strengthening the intermediation landscape in that impact area.

We engage in these sectors through three main loan products:

1. Balance sheet loans to existing financial intermediaries
2. Structured debt funds managed by seasoned fund managers
3. Asset-backed facilities or other direct, collateralized investments, where appropriate

The vast majority of our lending is through balance sheet loans and structured debt funds. Please note that we generally do not fund start-ups. Our loans size starts from $1 million.
