Impact Investment Banking & Advisory
We provide corporate advisory, M&A and capital-raising services to companies, funds and project sponsors building the low-carbon, resource-efficient economy.
Our Philosophy
“We believe a successful capital raise requires two ingredients: an exceptional product or value proposition, and an effective, rigorous and regimented process. We represent only the highest-quality opportunities, and apply all of our energy, creativity and knowledge to deliver a successful outcome.”
Gary LaDrido, Founder, Sustainable Capital Markets
Who We Are
Sustainable Capital Markets is a strategy and financial advisory firm with a singular focus: helping resource-efficient, energy-efficient, low-carbon and climate-technology businesses raise capital, complete transactions and finance the infrastructure of the energy transition.
What We Do
Corporate advisory, M&A and capital-raising for resource-efficient, low-carbon and climate-tech companies. We craft your value proposition and architect the fundraising strategy.
We design, develop and place innovative fund vehicles for venture, private equity, infrastructure and impact strategies: a three-phase, tailor-made process from structuring to close.
Platform and portfolio-level advisory for owners, developers and IPPs: corporate structuring, balance-sheet financing, multilateral support and credit enhancement. Single-project and development capital is executed through Renewable Advisors.
Why Clients Choose Us
Our founder, Gary LaDrido, built his career executing mandates at Morgan Stanley and across global capital markets. We bring that institutional rigor to a sector that demands both financial sophistication and genuine domain expertise.
Global Reach
Our relationships span four continents, from North American pensions and endowments to European ethical-investing pioneers, Asian sustainability allocators and an emerging Middle Eastern investor base.
Where We Focus
We advise across the breadth of the energy transition and the next economy, from firm clean power and dispatchable generation (including advanced nuclear and SMRs) to grid, long-duration storage, behind-the-meter supply, critical minerals and the AI data-center power build-out. Scale here is measured in megawatts and gigawatts, and long-dated PPAs with hyperscaler counterparties are what make it financeable.
Data center and AI power mandates here are fund and corporate level: general partners raising infrastructure or AI power vehicles, and companies across the value chain. Project financing, development capital and single-asset co-investment in AI power infrastructure are executed through Renewable Advisors.
Whether you are raising capital, exploring a sale, placing a fund or financing a project, we would welcome a confidential conversation.
