Our AI
You can’t move without hearing about AI, but who is implementing it? We are…
We’re building our own AI engine and integrating it into our platform to enhance, streamline and learn from SMEs. This will help provide a smoother and more intuitive process that will evolve over time.
Our innovative AI has been crafted from over 25 years of experience and aims to be one of the first to predict the potential of a senior leadership team to transition to employee ownership and propel it forward to be permanent and sustainable.
Our Capital Products
Valloop Equities
We take a long-term approach to equity investment by holding shares alongside SME employees. This creates stability, aligns interests and supports steady dividend income and value growth over time. With this model, we expect low volatility and sustainable returns.
Valloop Credit
We offer simple and efficient debt financing to facilitate SME sales and purchases on commercial terms. By establishing local credit pools in each country, we enable local investors to benefit from fixed-income returns while keeping capital close to home. Valloop manages these debt facilities with a moderate margin, ensuring accessibility and sustainability.
SME Investor Ratings
We have designed a proprietary investment rating system - over 25 years - to standardise the due diligence process of SMEs and enable scalability.
Continuous rating starts from the very first contact and continues to support the SME post-transition. We use six anchors to identify suitable investment opportunities.
-
Primary (Readiness)
We assess whether the SME meets our parameters and also whether we are both a suitable match to move forward.
-
Purpose
We establish the SME’s and Senior Leadership’s purpose for wanting to go Employee Owned.
-
People & Teams
It is crucial that we assess the Senior Leadership. How they work together, their motives, drivers, aspirations and goals. This all helps decide whether they are suitable for employee ownership.
-
Commercial
The financial structure of the company is equally as important to assess. We need to ensure the company has everything it needs to thrive and be prosperous for the employees
-
Environmental, Social & Governance
We strive to work not only with financially profitable SMEs but also with SMEs that are environmentally conscious and will assess their efforts to drive success for their region and the economy.
-
Due Diligence
With any big decision, we will make sure to assess the company and do as much due diligence as possible to ensure we work with the most suitable SMEs.
