Equivico by NCRC is a woman-owned impact investment management firm launched by the Nationall Community Reinvestment Coalition. We’re a group of people passionate about leveling the economic playing field for those with limited access to capital resources. We’re driven by a strategy of inclusion, which means leveraging capital to improve the way the economy works and produce an inclusive and equitable society, while delivering competitive returns. We seek to empower and maximize the potential of businesses, people and markets.
We seek to catalyze the growth of small businesses nationally through responsible debt financing, entrepreneur management training and support, and grant making. We have a strong network of small businesses nationally the vast majority of whom are owned by people of color and women. Our debt solution brings together the efficiency of technology with the intelligence of manual underwriting and access to underserved communities.
We are Equivico. Equality and Victory for All.
