About quasi-equity
Do you want to scale your impact?
Do you want to expand your social enterprise or sustainable green business? Do you intend to acquire a social real estate or develop a social housing project? Quasi-equity can help you finance your plans.
Quasi-equity in the form of a subordinated loan boosts your capital base with no changes to the ownership structure. Therefore, it helps to attract additional funding to realise your investments. It is provided at a fixed interest rate for the agreed contractual maturity and offers an individual repayment schedule. Quasi-equity is subordinated to all other loans and thus improves your financial and risk profile and helps you to attract additional funding.
