Concept
Investing is a good thing. But seeing the real impact of your investments is even better. With our Impact Investing certificate, make your portfolio grow with competitive companies, while participating in the direct financing of social and environmental projects.
Covering health, education, economic development or renewable energy, Swissquote selects realistic projects with a real impact on disadvantaged populations. Once the first project is fully financed, the dividends paid out are used to finance the next project. Therefore, the more funds are raised, the higher the number of projects financed.
Project sponsored by the certificate
Swissquote x Solafrica
Swissquote launched its sponsorship programme by providing financial support to Solafrica, a Swiss non-profit organisation that promotes access to affordable, reliable and renewable energy in economically disadvantaged regions.
1st project: Santé Solaire in Burkina Faso
For its first sponsorship, Swissquote provided CHF 30,000 for Solafrica's Santé Solaire project. This project aims to install solar equipment in medical centres in several villages across Burkina Faso. Most of these centres are not connected to the electricity grid. The Solafrica project in Burkina Faso guarantees access to healthcare for the local population and helps reduce energy poverty.
2nd project: Santé Solaire in Togo
Swissquote is continuing its sponsorship programme with Solafrica by financing the installation of a lead battery in the Akpakpakpé peripheral care unit in the Plateaux region of Togo. Thanks to this sponsorship, more than 13,000 people living around this rural health centre will be able to connect to the electricity grid and thus have access to light.
