Mirova launches a private equity social impact strategy

Natixis Investment Managers' subsidiary focused on sustainable finance, Mirova, has announced the launch of the Mirova Impact Life Essentials (MILE) project, a strategy that will support the growth of non-listed European companies to address challenges such as climate change, population aging, technological advances, increasing inequalities, contributing to the transition to a better society.

The strategy will focus on four investment ideas with a positive social impact:

• Wellness and healthcare
• Conscious consumption
• Diversity and inclusion
• Knowledge and skills

The objective of the fund is to raise EUR 200 million from institutional and individual investors in Europe. The Mirova Impact Life Essentials will be managed and led by Judith-Laure Mamou-Mani, senior investment director who joined the firm in 2023.

The launch of this new strategy is part of Mirova's roadmap for developing its private asset offering in Europe through to 2030.

In a moment of deep paradigm shifts, the launch of the MILE project is positioned to support this inevitable social transition, which will affect our lifestyles. It will give investors access to an unrivalled ecosystem dedicated to impact and real assets.
