Let's go!IIP
An impact investor platform (IIP) is a financial investment platform where investors are interested in achieving social and/or environmental benefits in addition to a financial return.
Bond
A bond is a financial instrument that allows companies and governments to borrow capital from investors. In return for the borrowed money, the bond issuers agree to make regular interest payments (coupon payments) and to repay the original loan amount (face value) at the end of the bond's term. Information about the ecoligo ecoStart eco-bond can be found here.
ESG
“Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)” refers to a set of criteria and frameworks that define how companies, governments, and public authorities take into account the needs of all stakeholders. In the investment sector in particular, ESG criteria are often used to compare different financial products in terms of their environmental impact, social aspects, and corporate governance. Often, the simplified term ESG-compliant financial products is used when what is meant is that these are particularly sustainable and also socially responsible. However, there are many companies that launch products that are marketed as ESG compliant, but often only engage in greenwashing. Find out here which ESG aspects are taken into account in ecoligo projects.
Crowdinvesting
Crowdinvesting is a financing approach in which the financing of a project or product is distributed among many individual crowd investors as capital providers. Each crowd investor makes a small financial contribution in relation to the total capital required. In return, the crowd investor receives interest or another type of financial return on the invested capital, in addition to repayment of the original investment.
