As the largest international fund manager for Nepal, managing USD 108.56 million, we are positioned as a catalyst for employment opportunities and a pioneering force for sustainable growth in Nepal. Committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, we direct institutional capital towards fostering impactful growth.
Since our operation, we have successfully curated the most extensive private equity portfolio in Nepal through Dolma Impact Fund I and II. The funds were established to generate private sector growth and jobs, environmental, and social impact and risk-adjusted market returns. We uphold rigorous international standards and implement robust Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) processes across the operations of our portfolio companies, ensuring a commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.
At both the fund manager and portfolio levels, we ensure adherence to the highest global benchmarks, establishing ourselves as a trailblazer in responsible and impactful investment practices.
We proudly achieved the first close of Dolma Impact Fund (DIF I) in September 2014, eventually securing commitments totaling USD 36.6 Million from European Development financial institutions and private investors. The fund is no longer open to new investments having backed 8 companies in the Technology, Media, and Telecommunications (TMT), Healthcare, and Renewable Energy sectors.
Building on the success of DIF I, we proudly achieved the first close of its successor, DIF II, securing commitments totaling USD 71.96 Million. This achievement underscores our commitment to sustainable investing and its ability to attract prominent investors to support impactful initiatives.
