Creating Value For Our Partners, Investors & The Community We Serve
Investors, family offices and private equity groups continue to direct more capital towards mission investing and socially responsibile investing, the question is constantly asked, What is more important- substantial returns or making a difference. At Athari Capital Group we don't think the answer is binary. Both are equally important. That is why it is important to have a partner like ACG that can do both very well at the same time. We currently develop our investment projects from the ground up so we are able to ensure the feasibility, impact and long-term returns at the very beginning. So we only promise what we can deliver and we ALWAYS deliver what we promise.
Our investors entrust of with their capital because we generate solid returns while making a positive impact in our community. This allows philanthropists, faith based organizations and investors of all kinds to work with us when they want to know their investment dollars are both making a profit and making a difference.
