Preserving the natural world

Agri-businesses need financing to develop sustainable solutions that limit biodiversity loss and enhance climate change adaptation and mitigation. 
 

Agriculture is a major cause of biodiversity loss. Agri-businesses require financing to help them adopt more sustainable practices. But few financial institutions have the resources, expertise and shareholder support to provide them with financing. 

 

We work with financial institutions to finance a wider range of innovative agri-businesses. We also make direct investments. 

 

Our specialists live and work where they invest - they know how to get things done. Our advisory & capacity building teams also broaden and deepen your impact. They tailor education and consultancy services for investees, and contribute to market development.
