At Genus, our mission is to help our clients achieve their financial goals and make a positive difference for our planet. We do our research to identify high quality investments that have real, tangible impact on some of the world’s most pressing socioeconomic and environmental challenges. Many of our Impact Investment Counsel clients are accredited investors who are interested in investments that advance gender equality. Our job is to find opportunities that suit their overall financial and impact objectives. Deetken Impact was an excellent fit for these clients, offering impact investment products with stable cash flows, a strong track record of performance, and a clear commitment to empowering women in Latin America and the Caribbean.

As an early member of the Capria Network, we have witnessed Deetken Impact’s evolution over the past ten years and it’s been amazing to see their role in expanding impact investing in the Global South. They have been successful in crafting alternative investment structures specifically designed for impact entrepreneurs looking for non-dilutive, self-liquidating, and flexible investment options.  And they’ve provided much needed support to Latin American companies that incorporate social and environmental objectives as an integral part of their business models.

Having known Deetken Impact for quite a few years and invested in two of their impact funds, we’ve got to know their leadership team well and think they are very good. They not only have a great investing track record but they are thoughtful individuals whose approach achieves a fine balance between financial return and positive impact creation. The technical assistance support and accompaniment they provide to their portfolio companies, including their work on gender smart business practices, is quite unique and ensures the alignment between impact goals and business performance.

We’ve known Deetken Impact for a long time, as fellow builders of the Canadian impact investing ecosystem. At Rally Assets, we work with mission-oriented investors looking to create positive social and environmental impact alongside a financial return. Deetken Impact’s Ilu Women’s Empowerment Fund has been a clear fit for some of our clients, including Rally’s own funds because of its strong intention to improve lives and communities, targeted investing to realize that intention and strong reporting of its impact performance.
