"The consistent focus on the positive impact of the planned bank, the holistic approach to measure impact and incentivize meaningful investments convinced me and I was very happy to support the project team in making this idea a reality. The world needs people who change things for the better."

"The financial sector needs an impact orientation. In Austria, there is no impact-oriented banking model on the market yet. I support the foundation of the first Austrian impact bank ALIA, because many investors care a lot about the impact of their money, and because most impact entrepreneurs prefer value compliant capital. ALIA has the positive impact in the focus of its business model, measures the impact and makes it transparent."
