Just like setting sail requires precision, teamwork, and foresight—this unique investment scheme ensures oversight and risk management as we navigate funding toward Sustainable Development Goals and resilient prosperity in underserved economies.
The Arete Scheme
We have developed a comprehensive software-driven oversight scheme, where we will act, primarily on behalf of fund providers.
Accountability
Monitoring and Longevity
Within this scheme, we will monitor projects from conception to completion and beyond, so:
Investors can be reassured that the projects they are considering are viable.
The projects are properly route-mapped.
Expenditure is open and transparent.
These results will also provide measurements against the specified goals of the project (e.g what was achieved in relation to achieving SDGs or safeguarding natural assets).
The Aim
We believe this scheme will be attractive to fund providers and reassure them as to the value of their investment.
The net result of this accreditation will be that find providers will be more willing to invest in such projects, and local entities will be able to show their probity and transparency in their spending and thus gain funding or further funding.
Our Investment Risk Tool
Caribbean Resilience Scorecard
For the past five years, Coastal 8 has worked diligently with island nations, coastal communities, NGOs, commercial entities, and financial institutions to understand the dynamics and the implications of climate change in their unique situations. This diligence resulted in the creation of the award-winning Caribbean Resilience Scorecard. A powerful planning and measurement tool that serves as the cornerstone of a successful blue green economic transition.
Other Efforts include:
- Enabled and actively joined with Dominica to produce the initial Reliance Scorecard.
- Refined the Caribbean Resilience Scorecard into the scalable BGetTM Roadmap Tool.
- Gathered a key set of experts and stakeholders to advance the use of the tool to address climate change rapidly and practically.
- Searched and screened providers of key systems.
Accountability
SDG & ROI Driven Approach
We are holding ourselves accountable to the United Nations 17 SDGs in which we believe 14 + 13 + 15 = 8. This foundational belief aligns our mission with efforts around the globe.
