The Fund will be established under Singapore's recently launched Variable Capital Companies (VCC) Act as part of the Monetary Authority of Singapore's (MAS) VCC pilot program. It is intended to be a Singapore domiciled, openended fund with monthly liquidity, investing in a carefully curated and concentrated portfolio of primarily Asian listed companies that meet the strict definition of GoImpact's proprietary screening. GoImpact operates an ecosystem developed to connect the dots and provide action enablers built around 3 key pillars - GoLearn (education); GoNetwork (structured advocacy); GoInvest (deal flow platform for sustainable investments) all designed to accelerate the Sustainable Development agenda from intention to implementation.
