Beneficial Returns is a new impact investing debt fund designed to support the growth of leading social enterprises that operate in emerging markets.

Beneficial Returns provides loans of $75,000 to $500,000 for revenue-producing and cost-saving equipment to social enterprises focused on sustainable agriculture and energy, waste reduction and re-purposing and poverty alleviation.

Beneficial Returns focuses on:
-emerging markets where the opportunities are greatest and where access to long-term financing is in shortest supply;
-vetted borrowers who have been recognized by the most respected names in social enterprise/social finance;
-the "missing middle" - enterprises too large for microfinance but too small for Development Finance Institutions.

Beneficial Return's investors are individuals with donor advised funds and private foundations that want to activate their un-deployed philanthropic assets for social and environmental good. They recognize that their money can have a positive impact even before it is given away.
