The SocialAlpha Fund aims at improving the lives of those at the base of the pyramid in the Global South, particularly in Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa. The Fund is predicated on a multidimensional definition of poverty, which states that in addition to lack of direct income, poverty is also caused by lack of access to various services and opportunities.

The Fund therefore takes a multi-sectoral approach and invests in impact ventures that address various aspects of sustainable development, including: 

• Financial Inclusion, 

• Sustainable Agriculture, 

• Renewable Energy and Energy Access, 

• Employment and Economic Development, 

• Access to Education, and 

• Affordable Green Housing. 

The Fund also particularly emphasizes the promotion of women’s economic and social opportunities, both within the investee companies and through the products and services that they offer.
