Profit with Purpose:
Public Benefit Corporations
When a company incorporates with a clearly defined purpose, everyone – not just shareholders – benefits. And they benefit big. Big on purpose, big on profit and big on impact. Operating as a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) is a shift from a shareholder-centric model, and instead uses higher purpose to guide and strengthen for-profit businesses and the stakeholders they serve.
Virtuous Capital has adopted this long-term investment strategy as its platform. Serving in both an advisory and investor role, this unique, future forward approach helps companies define their purpose-driven path and build growth businesses that are a force for good, for all. In today’s business climate of building an inclusive society, there is no better time to consider shareholders, debt providers, employees, customers, suppliers and community holistically and generate the returns that positively influence everyone – today, tomorrow and beyond.
