Market problems

Costly & inefficient portfolio management

The majority still use Excel spreadsheets to calculate impact-related metrics, which takes time and money.

Inaccurate impact measurement

Most investment entities rely on manual impact measurement without direct access to on-site data. It affects funds’ perfor-mance and their managers’ reputation.

Profitability and liquidity concerns

Limited liquidity and exit options, as well as uncertainty about appropriate financial re-turns prevent the market from rapid growth.

Mistrust chasm between projects and investors

Investors seek secured ownership rights and transparency, while projects fear bu-reaucracy and losing control over their projects.
