Mission -The mission of GATE Global Impact (GGI) is to create market infrastructure that facilitates investments in organizations for sustainable social and/or environmental benefit, in addition to financial return. GGI is changing the funding paradigm by scaling new funding sources from a global society for these types of investments.
Impact investing is a progressive new investment philosophy whereby an investor proactively seeks to place capital in businesses that generate financial returns from organizations committed to social, sustainable and/or environmental goals. The growth of IMPACT INVESTING is borne out by global trends in macro /micro socioeconomics, Next-Gen behavioral finance, and ubiquitous social media that continues to drive participants and awareness to this movement.
Technology GGI’s GATEWAY platform centralizes the way impact investments are sourced and funded and enables financing solutions to societal challenges. The GATEWAY technology platform is a USA regulatory compliant architecture that conducts transactions in multiple currencies and languages and integrates portfolio management tools and informational content. The technology differentiates itself by offering customized impact measurement metrics, a tool to manage the performance of these types of investments.
GATE Global Impact is a market infrastructure technology company dedicated to social impact investments.
