Holocene Impact Capital is a sustainability advisory firm specializing in advisory services, thematic research, and international real estate solutions.
HOLOCENE. The current geographic era that began over 10,000 years ago after the end of the last ice age. Due to its warm, stable, and predictable climate, it has been associated with the rise of humanity and modern civilization.
IMPACT. At the heart of our firm is an understanding that we all have an impact on this world. In all our decisions, our actions, and our work, we place outcomes at the forefront of our decision-making.
CAPITAL. When we set out to create this company, we focused on our professional backgrounds, our respective areas of expertise, and where we could play a meaningful role.
Sustainable Thematic Research – we are putting outcomes at the heart of what we hope to achieve and will work with our clients to identify global opportunities to reflect the goals they care about.
As climate change further impacts our lives, businesses are struggling to adapt. Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) metrics are often conflicting, opaque, and generally reward the largest firms. While businesses fail to take the lead, individuals have begun looking for new ways to deploy their capital. This gap between pledges and actions has created an enormous gap with the world needing to double its spending to USD $5 trillion in climate finance a year by 2030. At HIC, we realise that there will be no single solution to solve all the problems of sustainability. Instead, it will require a lot of hard work and investment in a wide range of sectors and services.
Global Real Estate Solutions – our top priority is ensuring that any property our clients invest in will be ‘climate ready’ so that you do not have to worry about a changing environment, increased climate risks, or stranded assets.
Our expertise in real estate allows us to appreciate that the sector is, and will always remain one of the most important asset classes for investors to hold. However, in our years of professional engagements, it is clear that more often than not, traditional firms do not take climate change nearly seriously enough. When they do, it is often included as an after-thought.
