Impact Investing & Private Equity

Unlocking a portfolio's full social and financial impact depends on understanding the decisions that make it up.

Investment decisions are difficult, doubly so when done in groups - they are one of the most studied but under-utilized areas of behavioral science. By basing decisions on science and removing bias, we can create more equitable, predictable and impactful investments.
