TriLinc Global, LLC (“TriLinc” or the “Company”) is a private investment company dedicated to creating a global platform for impact investing through alternative investment funds. With the launch of a $1.25 billion Global Impact Fund for “mainstreet” retail investors, TriLinc will help businesses in developing countries create jobs, grow the middle class and generate measurable positive impact. While many organizations focus on micro-enterprises, TriLinc concentrates on providing growth capital to the “missing middle” – established small to medium sized businesses in stable, emerging markets. The Company currently operates in the U.S., Latin America and South Asia, and is the manager and/or advisor on USD $85 million in four U.S.-focused alternative investment funds. Additionally, TriLinc provides credit analytics services to three international institutions, including a single client with over 6.5 million emerging market loans under a $180 million credit facility. After a successful 30 year career on Wall Street, Gloria Nelund, co-founded the company in 2008 to achieve her vision of providing scalable capital to small and medium sized enterprises in emerging economies in order to catalyze economic growth and reduce poverty. Gloria spent 30 years in the asset management industry, including as CEO of U.S. private wealth management for Deutsche Bank and CEO of Bank of America Capital Management, Inc. The Company completed three acquisitions in 2009; PAES, MF Analytics, and select assets from The InvestLinc Group. Through approximately $55 million in InvestLinc Group Asset Purchase, TriLinc assumed the management and/or advisory responsibilities for the four US-focused alternative investment funds, their suite of Life Services, and a group of distinctive individuals who comprise InvestLinc’s Capital3 Community. Through the acquisition of PAES and MF Analytics, TriLinc acquired a proprietary technology platform a credit analysis, risk management and transactional underwriting system engineered specifically to meet the data challenges presented by emerging market investing. Since the acquisition by TriLinc, PAES and MF Analytics were merged and now operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of TriLinc Global, under the name TriLinc Analytic Systems (TAS).
