A measurable social impact is a primary consideration of the community investment portfolio. Whether it is measured in the number of affordable housing units, charter school seats or individuals served by a heath care center in the targeted market, BECA will only invest in opportunities that return a measurable social impact for a low or moderate income community and for its investors.
The targeted social impact will be documented at the origination of the investment opportunity and confirmed once the asset becomes operational or is put in place. Ongoing social performance data will be captured and reported to ensure investments are being deployed consistent with investors’ stated goals, missions, or practices.
