Sinhasi Social Impact Initiative
The Social Impact Initiative curated by Sinhasi is a novel social investment platform designed to complete individuals’ 360-degree life plan circle- by bringing an equilibrium in people’s lives by broadening their investment portfolios, not only in financial terms but also in terms of investing in goodness and the betterment of the world.
After 18+ years of earning alpha returns for clients, Mimi Partha Sarathy, MD & Founder of Sinhasi Consultants, aims to assist to complete their life plan by driving their financial portfolio and social investments in alignment with their personal financial goals and allow them to contribute for a better and brighter future.
The theme for the inaugural campaign under Sinhasi Social Impact Initiative – Social Investments for Wildlife, Nature and Climate Change, is inspired by Lt M A Partha Sarathy, father of Mimi Partha Sarathy, a pioneer and a global legend, visionary and game-changer in the space of wildlife, nature and environmental conservation.
With the pressing need to address concerns for our environment and climate change globally, the theme for Sinahsi’s Social Impact Initiative Collective-1 holds the utmost importance today. Climate change is no longer a future problem.
As per the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment report, published in 2021, found that human emissions of heat-trapping gases have already warmed the climate by nearly 2 degrees Fahrenheit (1.1 degrees Celsius) since pre-Industrial times (starting in 1750). The global average temperature is expected to reach or exceed 1.5 degrees C (about 3 degrees F) within the next few decades. These changes will affect all regions of Earth.
“As an established Personalised Wealth Management firm, we are immensely proud to start the social impact initiative. Being the first wealth management firm to do so, Sinhasi aims to create symbolic relationships between genuine NGOs/ institutions with corporates and individuals to work towards a more sustainable and resilient future. We wish to drive the CSR contributions to more on wildlife and nature conservation which merely stand at 1% and 6%, respectively. The curated social investment initiatives reflect our unwavering commitment to sustainability and align with the values and aspirations of our clients,” said Mimi Partha Sarathy, MD & Founder of Sinhasi Consultants.
Sinhasi has strategically designed a comprehensive framework that aligns responsible investing with its core values. By leveraging Mimis extensive expertise, and credible connections over decades in the space of nature and conservation, the firm seeks to bridge the gap between capital requirements and resources to tackle critical environmental challenges and ensure a thriving planet for future generations.
With a deep commitment to sustainable practices and a vision for a better future, Sinhasi aims to play a pivotal role in protecting our planets invaluable ecosystems and driving positive change on a global scale.
Named Sinhasi Social Impact Initiative Collective 1- the theme stands as a testament to Wildlife, Nature and Climate Change – the noble cause supported by Lt M A Paratha Sarathy.
