Problem
Finance isn’t working for everyone, nor for the environment.
Finance for sustainability isn’t enough; Finance itself must be Sustainable.
Purpose
Responsible sustainable ethical fintech startups will disrupt for good/positive impact, at scale; for people and planet.
Talented purpose driven founders are evenly distributed across the world, including emerging, frontier & developing economies. Founders who have direct experience of problems, better understand the potential solutions. We enable opportunities for them to maximise impact, through disproportionate advantage, strategic sustainable design and impact investment.
Ethos co-creates, backs and partners with responsible fintech founders and innovators to develop responsible fintech ventures to improve lives and the environment.
