ABN AMRO has launched the Sustainable Impact Fund investing in early stage private companies.

ABN AMRO SIF will make private equity investments of 4 to 30 million euros and venture capital investments ranging from 500,000 euros to 4 million euros in companies with a proven concept. Three themes have been selected for these investments: the circular economy, the energy transition and social impact.

The new fund made its first two venture capital investments last month, in Envision and Foodlogica. The new fund will focus on the Netherlands, but also companies from other countries in Northwestern Europe are eligible for investments.
