Global insurance and asset management group AXA, consumer goods giant Unilever, and alternative investment manager Tikehau Capital have joined forces to launch a private equity impact fund dedicated to investing in projects and companies supporting the regenerative agriculture transition.
The three partners, who aim to invest EUR100 million each in a fund that has a target size of EUR1 billion, combine a unique set of industry, risk, and financial expertise to drive structural change.
