RESPONSIBLE INVESTING

Since 2019, DFCF has been committed to a socially responsible investment strategy across all asset classes: in public markets (equities and fixed income) utilizing funds and managers that follow ESG guidelines, negative and positive screens, and thematic strategies; and similarly with alternative investments that utilize socially responsible investment strategies, including renewable energy, climate change solutions, affordable housing, community development, healthcare, and other sustainable and responsible investments.

In addition, DFCF has a high impact investment strategy that consists of two components:

  • Mission-driven Capital Preservation, via DF Impact Capital, which is an investment vehicle that combines the high impact investing activities of DFCF and other family office assets which have both made significant allocations to high impact investing. This strategy includes both debt and equity investments in the US and internationally.
  • Catalytic or Philanthropic Capital focused on markets and communities that are underserved, such as Haiti, with a focus on livelihoods and job creation, financial inclusion, energy access, and sustainable agriculture.
