Impact approach
The Structured Equity fund will follow Norselab’s impact philosophy as outlined in the Meaningfulness Policy and adhere to our three Meaningfulness pillars:
- Product-driven impact: We focus on the impacts of the company’s revenue-generating products and services.
- Net-positive impact: We account for both the negative and the positive effects of companies to identify those with net positive impact.
- Impact where it’s urgent: We strive to invest in industries in great need of transformation.
Fund focus
Investments in the Structured Equity fund will combine preferred shares and warrants.
A typical investment case for the fund is companies with a strong product-market fit, proven impact potential and solid VC-backing. Potential tickets range from USD 3-10 million.
Investors can anticipate superior payout due to the advantages that the preference shares bring. Additionally, the proven business model provides fundamental downside protection.
