ACE Alternatives and ImpactNexus Partner for seamless ESG compliance management

Published date: 30 March 2023 | 5-Min Read

Combining managed services with sustainability management and reporting into a single end-to-end platform for the alternative asset industry.

Partnership value add

ACE Alternatives (“ACE”), a Berlin-based fintech and NEO-managed services provider for Alternative Investment funds has partnered with ImpactNexus, a sustainability management software provider.

The partnership not only expands ACE’s current ESG offering but also presents fund managers a more agile, accountable, and transparent managed services platform to drive their sustainability agenda.

The partnership initially grew from finding new ways to empower fund managers to refocus their resources on management and value creation over tedious and ever-growing ESG requirements. However, now the offering focuses on challenging the status-quo of how ESG management and reporting processes are serviced and enabled through cutting-edge tech.

Tech-driven ESG services

Both ACE and ImpactNexus focus on delivering a sustainability software that is more than just solving a painful and tedious reporting experience.
