Learn More about Who We Are

We connect institutional capital with SME supply chain debt—directly sourced from industrial enterprises and privately issued via nonbank institutions e.g., leasing, factoring or microcredit companies. By financing SME in the supply chain, our capital helps to create jobs and support local real economy particularly in the tier-4 cities and rural markets across the Yangtze River Delta and the Greater Bay Area regions, ensuring our investments outperform market peers while mitigating negative environmental, generating positive social impacts and advancing sustainable development goals.  

We believe it's time for investors to put their money into companies that solve the problems that matter to the world. Sustainable finance is growing globally across all asset classes, and it is the natural evolution of traditional investing as the industry shifts towards a more meaningful objective of generating positive social and environmental impact alongside non-concessionary financial returns.

We believe financial returns and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. Experience has shown that prioritizing sustainability before return will get neither. On the other hand, putting return before sustainability will likely capture both. One of the greatest mistakes of sustainable investing is to judge it by its intentions rather than the results. As an active manager, our mandate is to outperform our market peers. Because outperformance doesn't come from following market consensus, we generate our informational edge in-house, source and originate every transaction independently, conduct rigorous analytics to control risks and avoid risky names.

Our investors are primarily financial institutions, including the world's largest bilateral and multilateral Development Financial Institutions (DFIs), impact funds, and green asset managers. We assist them across the full investment lifecycle—from sourcing and execution to management and exit. By participating in our financing solutions, our investors act as debtholders and receive stable, fixed income returns. These allocations deploy critical working capital directly to SMEs, in supply chain bridging an urgent funding gap routinely overlooked by traditional commercial banks. In addition, we actively invest in our own balance-sheet alongside our partners.

Capital allocation to SMEs in the supply chain remains both insufficient and inefficient. In recent years, government policies have suppressed SME borrowing costs, abnormally narrowing interest rate spreads relative to higher-grade credit enterprises. This risk-return mismatch has led traditional financial institutions to drastically withdraw liquidity from the SME financing sector.  

We offer two types of financing: Green Finance and Social Finance. Green finance means financing unsubsidized energy efficiency and renewable energy projects for small businesses and individual proprietors that generate significant energy savings and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20% per annum. Social finance means providing small businesses and individuals proprietors with access to financing services that meet their funding needs routinely overlooked by traditional commercial banks – delivered in a responsible and sustainable way, a.k.a. Inclusive Finance.
