Impact lending for a sustainable future
Pioneering impact lending in Sweden
The Swedish Impact Lending Fund was founded to address a clear market need. Recognizing the transformative potential of Sweden's small and mid-sized businesses, and the gap in accessible credit, our founders conceived a unique solution. The Swedish Impact Lending Fund is not just a credit fund; it's Sweden's pioneering impact lending solution.
Using a proprietary ESG + Credit rating system, we select and back companies positioned for significant ESG advancements. Developed from in-depth research and a deep commitment to sustainability, our mission is to strengthen businesses while propelling a sustainable shift in the corporate world and delivering high risk-adjusted returns.
Why impact lending?
Most companies in Sweden, and globally, are small and mid-sized companies. The transition to sustainable future will require significant investment in this market segment, including capital that is tied to specific impact-related ESG measures.
Currently, a majority of the companies in this segment lack the capacity or capital to transform their business operations, products and services. They also lack clear sustainability transition plans. This represents a great financial and sustainability opportunity.
- With tailor-made impact lending solutions for each loan, we want to help companies transform in the most efficient way.
- The banks have retreated from the credit markets due to a number of crises and new regulations. The number of niche banks and non-bank lenders have increased and this will most likely continue.
- Financial institutions are looking for ESG exposure as well as high risk-adjusted returns. ESG credit exposure is difficult to reach for financial institutions who lack the organisation that a bank provides. The Swedish Impact Lending Fund will fill this gap.
