Nature: The next frontier of financial innovation

Ekofolio, a mission-driven fintech company making Forest assets investable and liquid, built on the latest advances in Blockchain Technology.

Globally, forests are a US$200B institutional industry, mostly invested in by pension funds and family offices. Large tickets, long maturity, illiquidity and technical complexity make such assets inaccessible or inappropriate for 99% of addressable capital in the world. Ekofolio is tapping on the latest advances in Blockchain technology to try to repair this disconnect in capital allocation to a sector that is fundamental to our civilisation.
