Enabling Growth. Scaling Impact.

WaterEquity’s funds have deployed over $250 million in capital towards solving the water and sanitation crisis.

WaterEquity stands apart from other impact-focused asset managers due to our deep understanding of the water and sanitation sector in emerging markets. Our Investment Management team is comprised of individuals with decades of banking and financial institution experience and an unparalleled understanding of the barriers low-income communities face in gaining access to water and sanitation. This unique combination enables us to identify investment opportunities with an attractive mix of financial returns and positive, multifold social impact across many of the United Nations Sustainable
