Company History
Founded in 1992, Advantage Capital is a national impact investment firm, providing innovative financing solutions that drive community impact as well as financial returns. The firm has invested billions in underserved businesses, affordable housing, renewable energy and more, creating thousands of permanent, quality jobs that pay above average annual American income, or 1.7 times the Living Wage in their communities, overwhelmingly in neighborhoods experiencing high poverty rates and low family incomes.
Advantage Capital creates strong partnerships with its portfolio companies, offering not just funding but also strategic support and guidance. The firm also draws on its 30-year history to offer advisory services to other program participants seeking economic and community development outcomes.

Throughout our 30-year history, we continue to push the envelope and shape the impact investing industry to ensure equity and empowerment for all entrepreneurs and business owners.
We work to consistently measure and demonstrate our impact efforts at every touch point—tracking and reporting job growth and security, employee health and welfare, wages and wealth creation, and everything in between.
With that, as we strive to strengthen communities, we believe investors have an opportunity—and obligation—to support profitability and prosperity for all. And, while we know there is still work to be done, we are prepared to do our part-remaining true to our mission while expanding the scope of how we make it happen.
