ABOUT US
Investing in change

Impact Plus is an impact investment company. Through our investments we seek to redress the negative consequences of apartheid spatial planning and investment inequalities. Our aim is to support the realisation of a more equal society and bring about transformational change in the South African economy.

We have raised significant capital from South African pension funds and private equity partners and seek out investments that meet our impact objectives.

We provide our investors with the opportunity to make a substantial investment in growing a diversified property, infrastructure and private equity portfolio through diversified investment programmes and platforms.

Investment focus areas
Our focus is on investments that have positive ESG outcomes

Impact Plus will invest in:

Projects that facilitate the economic transformation of the property ownership landscape
We invest in projects that provide affordable housing and accommodation, as well as the acquisition of premium and AAA-grade investment opportunities.
Infrastructure projects that bring about positive change for communities
We invest in significant infrastructure projects ranging from fibre installation to roads and renewable energy.
Opportunities that stimulate township economies
We look for opportunities in areas where previously disadvantaged people live, such as business process outsourcing centres and formalising the informal housing landscape.
Projects that enable B-BBEE ownership
We look for private equity opportunities, which have a measurable and transformational outcome on the sectors that we are invested in.
Investment objective
We recognise that ESG is no longer a choice, it’s an imperative

In everything we do, and with every investment we make, we consider how our decisions will contribute to society and how it will impact the environment.

We recognise that the consideration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are critical to the success of business across all sectors. In addition, with stakeholders and investors pushing for increased transparency, we have defined and embedded the core principles of ESG into our business processes to guide and steer our investment decision-making, monitoring and reporting process.

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has further highlighted the importance of these objectives to not only create, but to protect jobs and through this process to achieve resilience against extreme changes that the business may experience.

Our investment process considers the needs of our stakeholders, investors, beneficiaries and funders and consequently, we make strategic investments that will have a measurable impact on the business and to society, while generating financial returns for our investors.

Our Steps
Our Investment Approach

Strategise

Sustainable impact is sought for all investments and drives our investment strategy.

Evaluate

When assessing investment opportunities, we apply our Impact Matrix to ensure that the key fundamental objectives of ESG are achieved.

Finance

Our funding is obtained from institutional investors that share our ESG objectives and require that these are at the forefront of the projects they participate in.

Transform

When we embark on any business or investment opportunity, we ensure that ESG principles are achieved by addressing the economic and ownership landscape created by the legacy of apartheid.

Monitoring and reporting

Qualitative and quantitative measures are incorporated into our financial reviews and reporting in accordance with best practice principles and the needs of our stakeholders.

Our vision is to positively contribute to the environment and society as a whole, while driving investor returns for our shareholders.
