Adasina Social Capital creates innovative investment products that seek aligned social justice returns. Working in direct partnership with the communities most impacted, Adasina is transforming public markets into a powerful force for social justice.
Invest With Us
Adasina’s products enable public market investors to achieve returns while remaining meaningfully aligned with their social justice values. Our proprietary Social Justice Investment Criteria – which informs all of our investment products – incorporate 40+ screens and 80+ metrics sourced from the communities most impacted by racial, gender, economic, and climate injustice.
Our investor mobilization campaigns educate and mobilize investors on the most pressing social justice issues, as defined by the communities most impacted. So far, our campaigns have garnered $1 trillion in signatory assets, initiated material upgrades to corporate and market standards, and have helped social justice organizations achieve unprecedented victories on behalf of the communities they serve.
Advancing social justice at the scale of the public markets takes a unique and multidimensional approach. Unlike other firms, Adasina partners with social justice organizations to inform our investment strategy and management process, and we leverage investor capital through coordinated mobilization and education campaigns. The results are investment products that are informed by the communities most impacted, aligned to social justice movements.
Your portfolio has the power to help achieve the healthier, safer, more just, more resilient, more prosperous future you want to inhabit. Invest with us today.

OUR SOCIAL JUSTICE PILLARS
Racial Justice
Our racial justice work aims to uproot systems that reinforce, perpetuate, and exacerbate racial inequities. We educate investors on the risks posed by racial injustice in the public markets and mobilize investors to discourage companies from participating in racially unjust systems.
Gender Justice
Our gender justice work aims to uproot systems that deprive women, LGBTQ+, and gender-expansive people of safe and fair opportunities in the workplace and in society. We educate investors on the risks posed by gender injustice in the public markets and mobilize investors to discourage companies from participating in those unjust systems.
Economic Justice
Our economic justice work aims to create a fair, sustainable, and equitable financial future for all people and communities. We educate investors on the risks posed by economic injustice in the public markets and mobilize investors to discourage companies from participating in economically unjust systems.
Climate Justice
Our climate justice work aims to create a safe, healthy, and sustainable planet for all people and communities. We educate investors on the risks posed by climate injustice in public markets and mobilize investors to discourage companies from participating in environmentally unjust systems.

By Roberto Thornton (he/him)Managing Director, Investments & Impact Finance is full of terms that make investors think about their portfolios, not people. I understand the impetus — ultimately, as fiduciaries, we have a responsibility and commitment to the numbers. But the truth is, behind your portfolio’s performance are people and communities whose lives, livelihoods, and…
