We work across geographies and sectors to solve the often-unheeded social and environmental challenges and generate better livelihood opportunities for underserved communities.

Our investment strategies are strongly ingrained in the belief that fair economic development must enable economic Inclusion, development of communities, and most importantly improvement of people’s perspectives in those communities. With our private equity investments in growing businesses, we aim to generate such meaningful impact combined with risk-adjusted market-rate financial returns for our investors.

We have achieved our second #exit this year, marking our sixth exit out of the thirteen equity investments in our India portfolio within six years of our Fund.

Investor interest and growth witnessed by impact investing globally in the last decade have been robust. However, ambiguity exists regarding AIF vehicles addressing this space. 

Countering this, SEBI in India introduced Social Impact Funds (SIFs). SIFs are structured to invest in both for-profit and non-profit organisations. 

While we appreciate this thoughtful step toward strengthening the impact investing space in the country, there are certain questions that should be addressed to enable SIF to deliver optimal outcomes for all stakeholders. 

My latest article, co-authored by Ajay Raja (Senior Analyst, C4D Partners), raises these important questions and suggests changes that we believe will enhance the robustness and effectiveness of the SIF structure, ensuring a more balanced approach to social investment to generate impact combined with financial returns.
