Sustainable Investing

Investment Focus

At Ficus Capital, we describe ourselves as the World’s First ESG Islamic Driven Venture Capital. It is to the notion that ESG is a common practice and deeply rooted in Islamic economics and investment ethics.

Quadruple Bottom Line (QBL 4Ps)

Ficus Capital has introduced the Ficus ESG-Islamic framework, to guide companies, particularly startups and SMEs to be in compliance with the four main parameters of People, Planet, Profit, and Principle known as the Quadruple Bottom Line (QBL 4Ps).

People

The People perspective emphasizes the protection of life, progeny, and intellect. This entails fair labour practices, human rights, and nurturing employee capabilities for social development within the community where companies operate.

Planet

The focus on Planet involves safeguarding life and wealth, extending beyond human life to encompass the environment and natural resources. This includes reducing carbon emissions, minimizing energy consumption, and ensuring sustainable procurement practices to uphold the principles of Shariah.

Profit

The Profit aspect aligns with Islamic economic principles of fairness and justice. It encourages companies to strike a balance between short-term profits and long-term vision. It also promotes comprehensive business improvement, extending beyond financial performance to align economic goals with social and environmental objectives.

Principle

The Principle perspective centers on the protection of religion, encompassing adherence to Shariah and robust governance practices. It underscores the importance of strong internal processes within companies to maintain ethical and Shariah-compliant operations.
