Fund I figures. Portfolio Impact Multiple measured per the EIF’s social impact performance methodology.
Before we invest, a company has to show a credible path to delivering more than €100m of real value to society every year at scale. If it can’t, we don’t invest.
Reported every year
Each year we report impact KPIs on every company, and show their performance against targets signed off by our LPAC.
Carry on the line
Our fund carry is tied to our impact performance. If we fall short, we feel it too.
Staying at the frontier
Our research keeps us relevant as the frontier moves.
