Fasanara Capital is a financial services firm specializing in alternative credit strategies, asset tokenization, and fintech lending. The company provides innovative solutions for building resilient portfolios and embracing the digital future of finance.

Fasanara Capital

Founded in 2011, Fasanara Capital is a London-headquartered FCA-authorised investment firm and technology platform.

With 200+ employees across 5 offices, we manage c. USD 4 billion in Fintech strategies on behalf of pension funds and insurance companies in Europe and North America.

Fasanara seeks to offer institutional access to a range of inventive multi-asset capacity-constrained niche products, delivering uncorrelated and resilient alternative sources of return, and Real Economy Impact.

Our unorthodox portfolio construction and unconventional investment strategies are a response to today’s transformational markets.

It's with great pleasure that we announce Fasanara Capital's inaugural Sustainability Report.

This report outlines our philosophy and strategy when it comes to integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors within our existing investment processes and operations; it highlights the key steps that we have taken so far to integrate sustainability both at the firm and portfolio level; and it sets out our sustainability-related targets for the coming years.

2021 and 2022 were pivotal years for responsible investment, as the pandemic, deep-rooted social inequality, climate change and economic recession have put sustainability high up on the agenda for governments and corporates alike. Furthermore, the rollout of sustainability disclosure regulations across the world is boosting corporate transparency and leveling the ESG playing field for financial players. In this context, we believe we have a moral obligation to play a role in generating positive societal impact through sustainable financing, and that incorporating ESG considerations in our investment decisions are essential to creating long-term value for our stakeholders.

We also believe that innovation is the single most significant way to combat critical ESG risks. For over a decade now, banks have been progressively pulling up the drawbridge to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), retrenching to mainstream large corporates, stifling economic growth and creating a funding gap in the trillions. Our alternative credit strategies aim to generate a strong positive societal impact when it comes to the real economy, by harnessing our international ecosystem of fintechs to lend to unbanked/underbanked SMEs globally at scale in ways that are sustainable, and thus putting at the heart of our investment strategy the support of small businesses.

Matthew James Low, Head of Tokenisation at Fasanara Capital, examines the the significant role of tokenised real-world assets (RWAs) in bridging traditional finance with blockchain technology's cutting-edge capabilities.

This article emphasises the growth of tokenised assets, from private credit to US Treasury bills, illustrating the market's increasing confidence in these digital asset forms. It argues for a continued expansion and diversification within the tokenisation sector, propelled by changing investor preferences, technological innovations and regulatory developments in 2024 and beyond.
