Annual Report 2020

Letter from the CEOs Dear Friends and Supporters of NESsT, The year 2020 was a year that was extremely tough for everyone and the toughest one NESsT has ever lived. A year of several global crises sprung from systemic exploitation of our delicate planet and many of its citizens, and who sadly were also those most affected by these crises. A year that presented all of us with unique challenges, and that will forever remind us what it feels like to consistently choose courage.

The courage of the NESsT team, and the concerted effort they made to support our portfolio of enterprises. It was amazing to see them react to the crisis; reaching out to our entrepreneurs, surveying them on their immediate needs and of their employees and families; but also listening to their business challenges and providing them with needed resources so that they could streamline and pivot to new business lines and sales channels.

The courage of our entrepreneurs, who demonstrated to the world that the same resilience they apply every day in running and growing their companies in remote places with the most underserved populations, made them the perfect frontline respondents to the crisis. It was incredible to see how quickly they reacted and began working locally to save lives; repurposing their products to make them available to those in need; revamping their operations so that they could keep their workers safely working and providing for their families.

And the courage and generosity of our supporters, who reached out and

Annual Report 2020

offered additional support so that we could meet immediate needs and help sustain our portfolio.

Because of this courage, resilience and generosity, NESsT sustained 3,200 quality jobs in 2020 that led to a 23% increase in income and improved the lives of 35,600 people. We invested close to $1 million in recoverable grants and patient loans, while ensuring the survival of our portfolio of enterprises.

Our Loan Fund created a new working capital product that it deployed to ensure that suppliers would have the inputs needed to sell their goods in a timely manner. And we were able to launch new programs such as the Latin America Accelerator with IKEA Social Entrepreneurship in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru; the Amazon Indigenous Rights and Resources with USAID and WWF; the Amazon Incubator with the Climate and Land Use Alliance in Brazil; and NESsT Empowers supporting youth and women to access the Digital Economy with Google.org, J.P. Morgan Chase Foundation, BNY Mellon, and Credit Suisse in Poland.

We invite you to read more about these stories in this report.

Thank you for your belief in NESsT. Un fuerte abrazo (a heartfelt embrace), Nicole & Loïc

Annual Report 2020

Incubation Program Since 1997, we have provided tailored business assistance alongside flexible financing, mostly in the form of grants and recoverable grants, to assist social enterprises to become profitable.

| 16 social enterprises comprised the incubation program across Brazil, Peru, and Poland. By the end of the year, 3 enterprises exited the portfolio and 3 entered through scouting in Brazil and Poland.

Among the partners that have made the incubation program possible are BNY Mellon, Cisco, the Climate and Land Use Alliance, Google.org, IKEA Social Entrepreneurship, Fundação Arymax and Trafigura Foundation. In partnership with these supporters, we provided access to short-term working capital (pre-crisis, enterprises were seeking primarily long-term financing to invest in growth) and prepared to expand the portfolios in 2021 based on the increasing needs of social enterprises as the pandemic carried on.

On the technical assistance side, these enterprises needed advice and expertise to develop downside scenarios, update their strategies, adapt their products/services, develop new online sales channels, and pursue new business opportunities responding to Covid-19 humanitarian needs.

Impact Investing: NESsT Fund The NESsT Fund provides debt capital to highimpact enterprises in South America that are advancing job creation. An impact-first fund, it targets enterprises with high social and environmental impact with highgrowth prospects but that are under-served by the traditional financial system.​ Over the course of 2020, the NESsT Fund welcomed two new social enterprises to the portfolio, bringing the total to three, all from Peru. The Fund’s portfolio all consisted of rural businesses supporting smallholder farmers to access markets for environmentallysustainable products including moss, deforestation-free coffee, and organic fruit.

In addition to capital, the Fund provides business assistance to portfolio enterprises as well as those applying for our loans. Business assistance focuses on financial management, impact reporting and strengthening the capacity of enterprises to develop systems to streamline their operations.

Annual Report 2020

PERU | INKA MOSS Collects and processes sphagnum moss – a natural product that is highly demanded internationally for floral arrangements. The company trains and sources this natural resource from indigenous farmers, predominantly women, providing them with fair wages, and investing in infrastructure development in their communities.

PERU | CAECOS Export organic, free-trade through its cooperative made up of 370 smallholder farmers living in the central jungle of the Peruvian Amazon who earn an average income that is 31% higher than the income earned by other farmers in the region.

Lending During the Pandemic The pandemic affected the lending operations of the NESsT Fund. The most significant impact was on the fund’s pipeline: | Enterprise operations were delayed due to lockdowns, which affected supply chains, in particular in rural areas. Furthermore, in some sectors such as retail and tourism, the pandemic forced small enterprises to put operations on hold. | Governments implemented stimulus programs that provided low-cost loans to small businesses in South America. The government loan programs channeled funds to small businesses that would not generally qualify for bank loans and normally would rely on lenders such as the NESsT Fund.​ In response to the pandemic, the Fund launched a new working capital loan product to provide shortterm liquidity to enterprises. Many enterprises responded favorably to this new product.

Fund Portfolio Spotlight: Greenbox Transforms regions in the Amazon Andes of Peru from harvesting coca plants for use in drug trafficking to harvesting organic fruit for value-add products. Through its exports, the enterprise is on track to employ 522 smallholder farmers over the next four years.

Junín native, Magaly Crisóstomo, is the head of administration at Greenbox and oversees the company’s day to day revenues and spending, including documenting controls and logistics. In June, 2020, NESsT began to offer masterclasses to portfolio companies to help them manage key challenges during the COVID-19 crisis. Magaly joined the masterclasses to solidify her knowledge in the areas of business and finance.

In Junín, 24.5% of people live in poverty and the industries for work for women are severely limited. Beyond supporting farmers, Greenbox is enabling local community members like Magaly to access career mobility.

She aspires to take on more finance-related responsibilities at Greenbox and is pursuing a degree in accounting to expand her skillset, “My experience at Greenbox has been one of constant growth and learning,” she adds.

Our programs aligning with these priority areas encompass the following: | NESsT Amazonia: Regenerative agriculture, circular economy, ecotourism. | Empowers: Workforce development, youth inclusion, diversity, equity and inclusion hiring.

| Gender Equity: Women in tech, women in leadership, financial empowerment.

NESsT Amazonia Poverty lies at the heart of a significant proportion of the forest’s destruction. Farmers, loggers, ranchers and miners rush in from all over the Amazon basin and beyond to improve their livelihoods from the forest’s many natural resources. In the process, newcomers infiltrate the region and clear the forest, yet the natural resources they extract can only provide unsafe, unstable, underpaid work that further their conditions of poverty.

Local and indigenous communities stand as one of the most important stakeholders against deforestation. Indigenous-led enterprises and those operating regenerative value chains in the Amazon basin provide significant opportunities to improve community livelihoods and resources for conservation.

In 2020, NESsT continued to invest in local entrepreneurial solutions in the Amazon basin that build environmental resiliency.​ This culminated in strengthening the social entrepreneurship and impact investing ecosystem by undertaking the following initiatives:

| 750 conservation enterprises mapped​ | 15 sustainable value chains evaluated​

| 17 Amazonia impact investors identified | 1 of 7 Open Calls to source indigenous-led enterprises. The remainder are scheduled for 2021.

NESsT Empowers Talent shortage is the top concern for employers across the globe. We launched Empowers, a program that engages high-growth corporations who are interested in addressing their talent needs by hiring candidates who might not have all the desired skills and qualifications, but who could perform the job well with appropriate training. Five enterprises from Brazil and Peru comprise this portfolio and mitigate the talent shortage by enabling their clients to shift from recruiting solely across traditional channels and instead hiring these social enterprises to 1- train and vet talent from underserved communities including youth, women and people with disabilities; and 2- host courses for their HR departments and leadership across the company on diversity, equity and inclusion.

Upon the onset of COVID-19, NESsT partnered with its portfolio companies, Future Collars and Mamo Pracuj Foundation, to host a Career Summit for Women in IT that convened 1,200 women and 20+ corporations from 17 countries. Both social enterprises are diversifying the tech workforce in Poland by providing technical training and services to ensure that women, especially parents, stand out during the recruiting process and thrive in their roles long after hiring.

“We have programs that help women start their careers in Technology through internal recruitment. With some examples in our company, I notice that they entered the field gradually, after many years of experience. I urge others to do the same even if they merely wade along the shore.”

Ewa Carr de-Avelon General Manager of BNY Mellon Poland

Gender Equity is not a given in social impact Gender Lens Investing for NESsT means directing its investments towards enterprises that employ and/or include women in their supply chains. Moreover, these enterprises should already achieve or seek to achieve the following: | Eliminate gender biases in their hiring practices, close the gender wage gap, and provide the same professional development opportunities and level of job security to women as men. | Create workplaces that focus on gender inclusion and address the specific needs of women employees (i.e. sexual, harassment policy, workplace safety, antidiscrimination, and others). | Increase the number of women in management positions and in their supply chains.

In return, NESsT commits to support enterprises to transition from quantifying gender equity towards implementing changes with quantitative and qualitative outputs.

Based on what we learned, we created and implemented a new framework. This meant adjusting our impact measurement tools, working with our portfolio to ensure that they understand the gender dynamics of their business, and supporting them to incorporate gender inclusive policies and practices.” – Renata Truzzi, NESsT Country Director, Brazil

Learnings from COVID-19: When Crisis Struck Every Enterprise at Once Our unwavering philosophy has always been to provide high-impact enterprises with flexible capital that is aligned with the costs and risks they face in achieving positive social changes.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we distributed emergency funding to the social enterprises in our portfolio with the greatest need.

These companies worked to ensure that their employees, among the highest at risk from the COVID-19 pandemic, were able to access the income they needed to meet their immediate needs and prepare for the devastating impact of economic shock that will push people further into crisis.

NESsT launches masterclasses to support entrepreneurs with business pivots after months of surveying entrepreneurs on the impact of the pandemic on their business, their employees and supplies.

NESsT launches open calls to expand its support of social enterprises working in remote and underserved communities with new partners, including USAID, IKEA Social Entrepreneurship, and the World Wildlife Fund.

Contingency Planning Process Social enterprises are rapidly evolving so their need to pivot is nothing new. Even though our many of portfolio enterprises had plans to develop their e-commerce and digital infrastructure, the pandemic required that they accelerate these transitions. At the same time, entrepreneurs had to monitor government and public health regulations, understand lifestyle changes developed as a result of the virus, and sustain client and employee satisfaction during a period of crisis.

While the productivity and programming was delayed because of the discrepancies in the global response to the virus, NESsT determined a path forward with each enterprise through a contingency planning process that included several elements.

Short-Term Relief The pandemic restricted people’s movements and prevented many employees and their clients from exchanging goods and services that ensured their livelihoods. The employees and suppliers of our enterprises live in communities where people generally earn the minimum wage, and do not have savings.

Through our dignified employment surveys, we know that the average household size of a family of a NESsT Enterprise employee is five. With massive unemployment experienced all at once, social entrepreneurs felt an acute sense of pressure to meet payroll and avoid layoffs, knowing that most of their employees are part of households living in poverty.

Our social entrepreneurs initially perceived that their impact would be difficult to recover given the investment of time and resources recruiting, training and mobilizing in remote and vulnerable communities. Over the course of the year, the enterprises responded to the crisis by altering their business strategies and pivoting toward platforms and activities to turn these challenges into opportunities for their businesses. Over the course of 2020, we provided funding in form of grants to sustain jobs and ensure worker safety; supported companies with accessing emergency funding (i.e. government, philanthropic, clients); evaluated high-stake, short-term decisions alongside entrepreneurs; and provided guidance to entrepreneurs on worker safety.

Long-Term Response: Making Frontline Investing the New Normal During the pandemic, NESsT benefitted from its well-established process that provides us direct access to portfolio leadership, their employees and clients. The response of these enterprises at the frontline repeats itself over and over again: they demonstrate empathy, flexibility, rapidness, risk tolerance, and a deep desire to save and improve lives.

Our role as their incubator and impact investor was to catalyze capital and other resources to ensure that those who live in conditions of exclusion were given an opportunity to overcome the hardships. The pandemic brought to light an opportunity for our industry to make frontline investing the new normal. Having supported enterprises to position themselves for future growth simply because they sustained their operations and the trust of their communities at a time when so many businesses have been forced to close permanently, NESsT finished the year with several new financial products as well as investors with whom we agreed to expand the portfolio in 2021. Among the achievements that will result in long-term impacts are the following: 27
