Co-op Investing Roundtable

Goal: Get more money to grow more co-ops, employee owned firms & steward ownership.

• We do this by building relationships, “finding the others”, and imagining what more “connective tissue” might look and feel like to make equity-like investments in co-ops easier, more attractive, and a larger percentage of our total assets.
• Specifically, we hope to alleviate the “deal flow” problem with the long-term aim of establishing co-op ownership as a type of stable, dividend paying asset class (where our capital is in reciprocal relationship to workers, users, the environment) that’s highly regarded in “impact-first” investing circles.
