Distinct investment opportunities The eco.business Fund offers two separate sub-funds that follow the same investment strategy: Latin America (Sub-Fund I) and Africa (Sub-Fund II). Although the continents are economically and culturally different, they share important characteristics, including high growth potential, diversification opportunities, unique biodiversity and both are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
We are all affected by climate change and biodiversity loss From pollination and timber to fish stocks and carbon capture, economies rely on the natural world. This natural capital is being destroyed by biodiversity loss and the effects of climate change. If we don’t act, global annual GDP could decline by $2.7 trillion by 2030 – with low-income regions the most severely affected. Latin America and Africa are on the front line of this struggle and need solutions. But businesses in these regions struggle to access the financing they need make their operations sustainable. We must work together to address this funding gap.
A track record of protecting biodiversity and delivering for investors The Fund generates diversified returns, while conserving biodiversity, and supporting climate change adaptation and mitigation. We achieve this by financing the adoption of more sustainable practices by companies in Latin America and Africa. We provide financing via financial institutions to ensure more businesses can access capital. We also invest directly in businesses that are committed to sustainability. Our funding base unites public and private investors through our blended finance structure. In addition to financing, we support our investees with Advisory & Capacity Building services funded by a separate pool of sponsors.
