Investment advisory firm, Phenix, ventures into a new line of business

In a series of significant developments, various entities are enhancing their impact investment strategies and promoting sustainable practices in the aged care sector.

GIST Impact Collaborates with the UK’s Natural History Museum

GIST Impact, a leading player in nature and biodiversity solutions, has collaborated with the UK’s Natural History Museum to integrate the Biodiversity Intactness Index (BII) into its risk data analytics. The BII, a scientifically robust measure of ecosystem health, helps assess the impact of human activities on biodiversity and model future scenarios.

With this collaboration, GIST Impact can now provide location-specific, scientifically credible data and insights on biodiversity and ecosystem health at scale. This integration empowers investors and corporate clients to screen assets for biodiversity risks, identify sensitive areas for risk mitigation, model positive outcomes from strategic land use changes, and assess operational risks linked to declining or degraded ecosystems.

PCG Impact and Northern Horizon Pursue Sustainable Aged Care Investments

PCG Impact, a mission-driven entity focused on integrating impact investment strategies into portfolios, has taken on the role of impact strategy design, impact manager selection, and impact portfolio management for an aged care facility in Finland. The property will feature 57 modern care beds, including 31 intensive care beds and 26 communal living units.

Meanwhile, Northern Horizon, a seasoned investor in care and senior housing assets, has made over 160 investments since 2007. The company's fifth healthcare fund has invested in 66 care homes across Sweden and Finland, including two existing facilities bought in May and a care home under development in the Finnish city of Espoo.

Funding and Expansion in Spain

In Spain, ImpactBridge has closed its IB Deuda Impacto España fund, securing over €147m in commitments. As a result, Phenix Capital Group has launched its investment advisory services as a separate business called PCG Impact, effective from 9 July 2025. The fund, which is the largest impact-focused fund in Spain, according to Impact Bridge, aims to strengthen its team with strategic appointments to meet its growth ambitions.

The Aged Care Social Infrastructure Fund, launched in 2024, has also made strides. The fund has recently acquired a care home under development in Finland, with the construction expected to be completed in 2026. The property will be highly rated for energy efficiency, featuring solar panels and geothermal heating.

Sustainable Financing for Solar Projects

In Latvia, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the European Investment Bank (EIB), and SEB have provided €84.8m in loans for solar projects. These funds will support the transition to renewable energy sources and contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

In conclusion, these collaborations and investments reflect a growing commitment to sustainable practices and impact investment strategies across various sectors, particularly in aged care facilities and renewable energy projects. By integrating scientifically validated metrics and promoting energy-efficient solutions, these entities are paving the way for a more sustainable future.
