Bridges is a specialist sustainable and impact investor. Since 2002, we have been focused exclusively on investing in the transition to a more sustainable and inclusive economy, across multiple strategies.

Over time, we have developed a platform of private markets strategies to invest in solutions that support this transition. All our strategies operate within these two broad themes, identifying specific areas where a focus on sustainability and impact can drive financial outperformance along with better outcomes for people and planet.

This platform approach means we can offer solutions to investors with a range of financial and impact goals.

The Bridges platform

Property
Private Equity
Outcomes Partnerships

The Bridges Property Funds invest opportunistically in needs-driven growth sectors that support the decarbonisation of the built environment, alongside better health and wellbeing outcomes. Since 2010, we have developed over £2bn of assets across 70+ transactions, delivering attractive investment returns and measurable positive impact.

Bridges backs ambitious growth companies whose products or services are supporting the transition to a more sustainable and inclusive economy. We specialise in identifying sectors and business models where a focus on sustainability and impact can unlock a significant commercial growth opportunity. We can then invest in like-minded partners via our growth equity fund, or our pioneering patient capital vehicle.

Outcomes partnerships are a transformative new model for the design and delivery of complex human and environmental services.  Operating through our not-for-profit subsidiary Bridges Outcomes Partnerships, our team has now provided the project finance and project management to support more than 70 of these innovative projects, which have supported almost 50,000 people globally.
