Investing to Give

Fasanara, in addition to adhering to ESG filters and parameters in its investment decision-making and monitoring processes, pursues philanthropic initiatives aimed at providing long-term support to the most vulnerable segments of society.

Our Model for Giving Back

At the end of each year, investors in a charity share class donate a percentage of their returns to charities carefully vetted by Fasanara.

Fasanara commits to matching each investor’s donation with the same percentage of its fees from the corresponding share class, thereby amplifying the impact of each contribution.

Fasanara actively monitors and reports back to investors on how the donated funds are utilized by the charities.

To further incentivize giving, we recognize the top 3 investors with the biggest contributions on our website annually.

OUR FOUNDATION

The creation of the Fasanara Foundation: Second Chances ensures that all investor contributions and donated fees are securely directed to approved charities, with funds specifically set aside in trust for philanthropic initiatives.

Fasanara will actively oversee the approved charities, with quarterly reviews conducted by senior Fasanara members, alongside any investors who wish to participate.

Charity Selection

Our philanthropic philosophy is deeply rooted in our commitment to genuine social impact, guiding us to partner with the most effective and transparent charities.

At Fasanara, we conduct thorough due diligence for each charity during the onboarding process and maintain active oversight of all charitable donations. This rigorous approach ensures that our contributions are both impactful and aligned with our values.

To date, we have carefully vetted and donated to the following charities: United Hatzalah of Israel, Stand By Me, Synchronicity Earth, Eyes on the Future and the Allied Community Ataxia Research Foundation (La Fondazione Acaref).

Race To the Top Challenge

Recognising the most generous investors

Fasanara’s innovative “Race to the Top Challenge” mechanism is designed to extend benefits beyond financial returns, offering investors an opportunity to both invest and donate simultaneously. At the end of each year, the top three investors and their contributions to the charity share classes will be featured on the Fasanara website (with their consent). Investors can monitor the impact of their donations through detailed progress reports, which will be provided quarterly.

TIME TO ACT

Time To Act was a collaborative initiative with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, dedicated to supporting the people of Ukraine. Leveraging our extensive network of counterparties, we successfully fundraised for the Red Cross's Ukraine Crisis Appeal under the banner. #Fintech4RedCross

The initiative sought to unite the broader Fintech community—our friends, partners, and clients—in raising funds for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. The proceeds were directed toward addressing the urgent humanitarian needs of those affected by the conflict, both within Ukraine and in neighbouring regions.

GIVE AS YOU EARN

We take pride in having employees who embody our values and principles, whether through their passion for helping those in need or their commitment to environmental causes. To support this, we offer payroll giving as a benefit through our partnership with the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), known as Give As You Earn. This programme provides a tax-efficient and convenient way to donate to any charity in the UK.

Many charities prefer receiving donations via CAF Give As You Earn, as it eliminates the need to claim Gift Aid, allowing them to focus entirely on their mission.
