Confluence Investors

At Confluence Investors, we believe the businesses we invest in are more than numbers on a spreadsheet or tools to deliver commercial returns. These businesses are the engines of positive change in society. Take, for example, the life of a student who benefits directly from the services provided by ADvTECH Group, an education business based in South Africa and Kenya. ADvTECH is part of the Confluence potential investment universe. This student gains access to not only education but also a safe environment equipped with the facilities necessary to also support their wellbeing. As they work towards their qualification, they are building a brighter future for themselves—one that increases their earning potential and opens doors to new opportunities. But the impact doesn’t stop with them. The ripple effect of this education transforms not just the student’s life, but that of their family, and often their extended family as well. At Confluence, we believe that each investment should deliver not only financial returns but also a meaningful and positive impact on the individuals and communities it touches.

Confluence Impact Stories: Cartrack   At Confluence Investors, our commitment to impact goes beyond mere analytics; we actively seek narratives from end consumers, providing firsthand accounts of how their lives are positively influenced by companies within the Confluence investment universe.   One compelling example is Cartrack, a South African company specializing in the production of telematic devices for motor vehicles. In this exclusive video, we showcase the profound impact Cartrack has on individuals and communities. The innovative "boxes" installed in cars or fleets not only helps enhance driving behaviour but also help contribute to the reduction of fuel emissions, car theft, and accidents.   It's important to note that Confluence Investors spearheads this initiative independently, and Cartrack has no direct involvement or influence in this project. While strategies recommended by Confluence Investors may or may not include investments in Cartrack, it's essential to understand that Confluence Impact Stories are not intended as investment advice or promotional material.   Through these impactful narratives, we aim to shed light on the transformative effects of conscientious investments and inspire a collective commitment to positive change. #Impactinvesting #emergingmarkets #southafrica

Confluence Impact Stories: Integrated Diagnostics Holdings Impact is core to the way Confluence Investors invests. As well as analytically measuring impact we also collect stories from end consumers of how their lives are directly impacted by companies in the Confluence investment universe. This is our own project and the company has no influence or input.  Following are customers of Integrated Diagnostics Holdings - IDH - a diagnostic company headquartered in Egypt that brings access to lab tests to more remote areas. Strategies advised by Confluence Investors may or may not hold an investment in IDH. Confluence Impact Stories are not, and should not be considered investment advice or promotion. https://lnkd.in/eGbBrDGp #Impactinvesting #emergingmarkets #egypt
