There’s a growing demand from investors that want to have positive impact with their money. Crowdfunding investment opportunities are a great way to support projects and raise money for organisations that don’t have as much access to traditional funding routes. It gives impactful projects the chance to grow, make a real difference, and allows investors to be part of that journey.
Triodos Bank and Ethex both have decades of experience in offering these kinds of investments, and are now joining forces to make crowdfunding simpler and more accessible to others, while being more impactful than ever.
Here’s what the partnership means for investors:
More choice on one platform
Through the Ethex platform you’ll be able to access far more ethical investment opportunities in one place. Triodos Bank and Ethex have a shared commitment to transparency, and all projects will be vetted for their positive impact. By joining the Triodos and Ethex crowdfunding communities, both sets of investors will have access to even more opportunities to do good with their money.

Simpler account management
If you’re an existing Triodos Crowdfunding investor, you’ll be transitioned onto the Ethex platform, where you’ll get a single portfolio view, streamlined communications and clear signposting, so you’ll always know what’s being offered by Triodos directly, alongside Ethex’s own offers.
Combining strengths and expertise
Ethex and Triodos Bank UK will continue to source investment opportunities independently and will focus on complementary sectors. Triodos Bank UK’s specialist Capital Raising and Advisory team will also continue to originate and structure new investment offers, as the bank has done for over 25 years. These offers will be available to everyday investors through Ethex.
Our CEO, Mark Clayton, says: “Our mission has always been to make money work for positive change. In 2018 we become the first bank in the UK to launch its own crowdfunding platform to enable everyday investors to directly support organisations creating positive impact. By partnering with Ethex, we can now offer more investors even greater access to these high-impact opportunities. Working together we are uniquely placed to respond to the increasing scale and evolution of the direct impact investment market.”
