Sustainable and impact division

At Teak Capital Incorporated, we firmly believe that businesses should operate with a conscience and strive for more than just transactions. In line with our integrated strategy, we have established the Sustainable and Impact Division to add value to businesses by enabling innovative modes of financing and supporting corporations and financial institutions that make a positive impact on society, particularly in low and middle-income countries.

Our focus on responsible growth through Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) leadership has enabled us to take the lead in promoting and participating in Impact Investment projects. We are currently executing mandates worth over USD 60 billion, which help strengthen the capabilities of businesses to foster sustainable economic growth, create job opportunities, promote gender equality, empower women, ensure access to sustainable energy, alleviate poverty, and develop resilient infrastructure for the well-being of all.

The Sustainable and Impact Division has been able to successfully conclude engagements of over USD 2 billion across short-term and long-term projects in sectors like Agriculture, Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, Mechanization and Food Processing, and Mining since the beginning of 2020 in Brazil alone. Our customized solutions help companies operate in a way that is sustainable, socially responsible, and good for the environment. By connecting both sides of the equation, we have developed a group of over 90 impact-focused investors with whom we work closely to structure and place funding via bilateral or syndicated routes. Our efficient and seamless approach helps energize the channel of supply and demand.

We believe our involvement goes beyond arranging finance. We have dedicated teams in place to help clients define and sharpen their environmental and social impact, provide key technical and financial expertise, and support documentation. This enables us to create a comprehensive action plan that is compliant with impact investors, bringing together the right investors and corporates to effectively attain their fund-raising goals within a shorter turnaround time.

The Sustainable and Impact Division works towards fulfilling the need for an alternative approach to traditional finance, one that focuses on sustainability and impact. Our services help create a future that is socially and environmentally responsible, and economically viable.

The Importance of Sustainable Investing

Sustainable investing is becoming increasingly important in today's society, as we recognize the impact of businesses on the environment and the role they play in promoting social change. With the rise of ESG considerations, businesses must demonstrate that they are not just operating in a way that is financially viable but also socially responsible and good for the environment. As a result, investors have become increasingly interested in investing in businesses that have a positive impact on society, particularly in low and middle-income countries.

Sustainable investing can take many forms, including impact investing, which aims to generate positive social and environmental impact alongside financial returns. Impact investing is particularly important in low and middle-income countries where there is often a lack of investment in critical sectors such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Impact investing can help bridge this gap by enabling businesses to operate sustainably while also creating a positive social impact.
