CAPACITY BUILDING
Social enterprises in emerging economies suffer from the capacity challenge to meet the growing needs of the startups and economy. Enterprises do not have access to right resources who can assist them in implementing and streamlining internal processes and help them to scale. To measure the social, environmental and economic impact of investments in the enterprises that are active in the value chains, requires an understanding of the target populations served, product or service being offered and the inter-connected role played by all stakeholders.
We have been helping social enterprises in the following areas:
POLICIES & PROCESSES
FINANCIAL ADVISORY
INVESTMENT READINESS
EFFECTIVE MIS BUILDING
KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER
DUE DILIGENCE
Due Diligence is a key process undertaken by an Investor before making an investment. ALSiSAR IMPACT has done Due Diligence of 200+ social enterprises and has gained on-ground understanding of the ecosystem and gaps. AI has devised an interrelated approach to Due Diligence where we link the financial, legal and impact aspect with the operations of the Company, bringing a holistic report and analysis. Furthermore, while identifying the gaps, we also provide recommendations and solution-based advice to make the entity in concern investment ready and compliant.
