Career journey
Le Frapper started her career in financial services by working for an investment manager in Berlin.
“This is where really I got an understanding of impact investing and how they were using innovative digital tools to enhance operations,” she said.
From there, Le Frapper pivoted into tech, saying that she wanted to understand “the how” behind these advancements, and ended up working as an analyst for Amazon and for a tech consulting company.
Le Frapper then decided to start her entrepreneurial journey, founding No Impunity, a company involved in platform streamlining, investment and impact litigation.
She added that the company takes financial servicing through the lens of impact investing.
Impact investing
Le Frapper described impact investing as “crucial” because “it is so fast”.
She identified three aspects of impact investing that she believed makes it so essential, with the first part being using assets to create the most financial value in terms of profit.
The second part of impact investing comes from the long term nature of the investment, both in a financial sense and in a environmental sense
“You’re creating this value in the long term,” she explained.
The final point concerned impact investing potential to be used as a tool for systematic change.
“It is not only used as a tool for profit but it’s also used as a tool to address any equity issues,” she said.
Le Frapper concluded by stating: “Why not actually use your money on a more long term perspective?”
