3 Our Purpose Verde Ventures invests in small businesses that contribute to conservation and communities in Conservation International's global priority areas.
4 Why Verde Ventures? Conservation-based employment is essential to provide economic incentives for conservation The small business sector is a key partner in the intersection between human welfare and conservation Lack of available, affordable capital to ensure the sustainability of the sector

12 Invested Project Summaries
13 Ibo Island Mozambique Amount: $495,000 Sector: Tourism Use of funds: To renovate and expand its existing lodge in northern Mozambique Deal Structure: Invested offshore and secured with offshore collateral for 5 years at 8% interest plus % of sales. Impacts: Improved management of National Park (750,000 hectares) through ecotourism led job creation for 40 community members
14 Koyam Limitada, Chile Amount: $150,000 Use of funds: To finance the reforestation of degraded lands in the central region of Chile using native trees Deal Structure: Loan secured against government- issued reforestation contracts and local collateral Impacts: Benefit 250 local Mapuche community members and implement a reforestation of Vulnerable Araucaria tree species in 150 hectares of threatened land.
15 Key Lessons Learned There are often (not always) trade-offs between financial risks/rewards and biodiversity benefits. Transaction costs for triple-bottom line investing are higher than traditional investing. All TBLN monitoring costs should not be charged to the borrower. There is a downside to scaling up- mission drift and loss of focus on helping build businesses as opposed to just providing capital. It is possible to be an equity-type investor using loan finance, but grant funds for building emerging SMEs is essential.
16 Future Horizons Capital Raising Phase: $10 million over next 2-3 years. 50% of this already committed from new and existing investors. Increase Investments in Africa and Asia Increase funding for grant-based Technical Assistance and Monitoring Diversify Sectors including Ecosystem Service Diversify Sectors including Ecosystem Service Investments
17 VV s Ecosystem Service Investments? Challenges: Securitization Term Returns Opportunities: Trade Finance model replication (e.g. reforestation in Chile) Climate Change Mitigation = Renewable Energy Sector Opportunities
18 Mainstreaming Biodiversity Financing Recognition that scalability must occur with commercial banking and private equity sectors. Supply: Financing incentives needed to encourage banks to lend to sustainable SMEs. Demand: Maturation of specific sectors to become bankable/ equity returnable - partially through help of boutique, blended (loan/grant) capital and grant-funded technical assistance.
