SASIX Social Development Project

A life-changing cardiac operation for 10 children. A rose geranium essential oils income-generating project for local farmers. Isolating the gene that protects the white lion from hunting and poaching. A new prospectus of social investment opportunities is out today.

The six social and enterprise development projects in the prospectus have been thoroughly evaluated by GreaterCapital’s research and due diligence team and are listed on the SA Social Investment Exchange (SASIX). For as little as R50, you can buy a share in one of these innovative initiatives and become a social investor with your own portfolio of high-impact projects.

Earn B-BBEE points 
For small and medium-sized businesses, this is the ideal way to get your Socio-Economic Development points on the B-BBEE scorecard. Think of it as your own virtual CSI department – without the hassle of having to vet, assess and track projects.

Easy and effective
GreaterCapital takes care of all the leg-work and administration for you. We assess project impact and sustainability and, once projects are fully funded, facilitate the transfer of funds to the beneficiary organisations through a transparent and accountable process. Investors can track the performance of their investment portfolio and view their impact online at any time of the day or night.

And you can view detailed reports on your portfolio of projects at the click of a mouse.

>> Browse the prospectus or simply go to www.sasix.co.za and invest today.
