Unlocking billions in investment to build climate resilience
Data drives our work
Nithio is a climate fintech platform – we make investments to clean energy companies & help others allocate capital to climate solutions that build resilience.
We are powered by our Risk Analytics Engine, which leverages customer repayment data, geospatial data, and AI to standardize credit risk assessment.
The Engine informs our:
- Investment management: Investors can maximize their impact through FAIR – a blended-finance investment vehicle that provides risk-informed debt to clean energy companies.
- Climate Solutions services: Grantmakers, investors, banks, and MFIs can leverage our analytics to build sustainable climate-focused programs.
Building climate resilience and achieving a just energy transition
Nithio was created to drive investment in a just energy transition by significantly increasing climate finance in underserved markets.
Given the growing impacts of climate change, there is an urgent need to increase investment in resilience. Only 5% of climate finance is directed exclusively to adaptation and resilience. Sub-Saharan Africa only contributes 3% of global emissions, so it does not see significant investment in mitigation, yet is the least climate-resilient region in the world.
Universal energy access is one of the important keys to building climate resilience. Access – especially from clean sources – improves quality of life, supports economic mobility, builds financial inclusion, and improves health, safety, and education outcomes.
