  • Crowdfunding in Asia
    Crowdfunding in Asia May 2018 Introducing the first free directory of crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The data is based on the AlliedCrowds Capital Finder, a database of over 7,000 alternative finance capital providers across emerging markets. Our data has been used by organizations like FSD Asia, UNDP, World Green Economy Organization, GIZ, World Bank, and others in order to provide unique, actionable insights into the world of emerging market alternative finance. This is the latest of our regular reports on alternative finance in emerging markets; you can find all previous reports here. Crowdfunding rose in prominence in the post-financial crisis years (starting in 2012), and for good reason: a global credit crunch limited the amount of funding available to entrepreneurs and small businesses. Since then, crowdfunding has grown rapidly around the world. Crowdfunding is especially consequential in countries where SMEs find it difficult to raise capital to start or grow their businesses. This is the case in many Asian countries; according to the SME Finance Forum, there is a $2.3 trillion MSME credit gap in East Asia and the Pacific. Crowdfunding can help to fill this gap by offering individuals and small businesses an alternative source of capital. This can come in the form of donation-based as well as lending-based (peer-to-peer or peer-to-business) crowdfunding. In order to help entrepreneurs and small business owners to find the crowdfunding platform that’s right for them, we are releasing the first publicly available list of all crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The report is split into two key sections: the first one is an overview of crowdfunding platforms, and how active they are across the largest markets on the continent.

    2019 URBAN INSTITUTE ANNUAL REPORT A Message from the President Dear Friends, Inspired by our 50th anniversary, the Urban Institute kicked off our next 50 years in 2019 with a renewed commitment to advancing upward mobility, equity, and shared prosperity. We also collaborated with changemakers across the country to develop innovative ideas for how Urban could best fulfill our mission in light of trends likely to bring disruptive change in the decades to come. We did not expect such change to arrive in 2020 in the form of a pandemic that has exposed so many fissures in our society, including the disproportionate vulnerability of people of color to health and economic risks. Nor did we anticipate the powerful uprisings that have called needed attention to police brutality, antiblackness, and racism in our country. But as I consider the work Urban is undertaking to inform an inclusive recovery from the coronavirus pandemic and dismantle the systems and structures that drive racism, I am grateful for the many partners who, by engaging with our Next50 initiative in 2019, helped Urban accelerate the development of capacities and initiatives that are having an impact. Among the ways our work made a difference last year: ▪ Influencing efforts to boost Black homeownership. Our groundbreaking work on dramatic declines in Black homeownership helped make the issue an urgent concern in advocacy and policy circles. Urban delivered powerful new findings showing how a set of housing finance innovations can build wealth in communities of color. We also helped launch a collaborative effort with real estate professionals, lenders, and nonprofit leaders to amplify and solidify a framework for reducing the racial homeownership gap.

  • Accelerated Attacks on Clean Energy by Koch Bros
    Checks and Balances Project Documents: Accelerated Attacks on Clean Energy by Koch Bros. $192 Million to 72 Groups Associated with Opposition to Clean Energy Solutions and Climate Change Denial from 1997-2013 $108 Million to At Least 19 Groups to Fight State Renewable Energy Policies 2011-2013 (Over 18 months, Checks and Balances Project conducted the first in-depth investigation into Koch Industries, Inc. AND what we call the Koch Advocacy Network. Over 350 low-profile regulatory disclosures and more than 8,000 legal disclosure forms drawn from over 60 public agencies, databases and courts were examined. Research was completed prior to the 2016 election.) In August 2015 President Obama singled out the “massive lobbying efforts backed by fossil fuel interests, or conservative think tanks, or the Koch brothers pushing for new laws to roll back renewable energy standards or prevent new clean energy businesses from succeeding.” The President described these anti-clean energy efforts as “rent seeking and trying to protect old ways of doing business and standing in the way of the future.”1 Charles Koch responded that, “We are not trying to prevent new clean energy businesses from succeeding” and warned against “subsidizing uneconomical forms of energy — whether you call them ‘green,’ ‘renewable’ or whatever.” He continued, “And there is a big debate on whether you have a real disease or something that’s not that serious. I recognize there is a big debate about that. But whatever it is, the cure is to do things in the marketplace, and to let individuals and companies innovate, to come up with alternatives that will deal with whatever the problem may be in an economical way so we don’t squander resources on uneconomic approaches.” 2 The defense outlined by Charles mirrors the strategy of the network he oversees.

  • Koch Millions Spread Influence Through Nonprofits, Colleges
    HOME ABOUT STAFF INVESTIGATIONS ILAB BLOGS WORKSHOP NEWS Koch millions spread influence through nonprofits, colleges B Y C H A R L E S L E W I S , E R I C H O L M B E R G , A L E X I A F E R N A N D E Z C A M P B E L L , LY D I A B E Y O U D Monday, July 1st, 2013 ShareThis Koch Industries, one of the largest privately held corporations in the world and principally owned by billionaires Charles and David Koch, has developed what may be the best funded, multifaceted, public policy, political and educational presence in the nation today. From direct political influence and robust lobbying to nonprofit policy research and advocacy, and even increasingly in academia and the broader public “marketplace of ideas,” this extensive, cross-sector Koch club or network appears to be unprecedented in size, scope and funding. And the relationship between these for-profit and nonprofit entities is often mutually reinforcing to the direct financial and political interests of the behemoth corporation — broadly characterized as deregulation, limited government and free markets. The cumulative cost to Koch Industries and Charles and David Koch for this extraordinary alchemy of political and lobbying influence, nonprofit public policy underwriting and educational institutional support was $134 million over a recent five- year period. The global conglomerate has 60,000 employees and annual revenue of $115 billion and estimated pretax profit margins of 10 percent, according to Forbes. An analysis by the Investigative Reporting Workshop found that from 2007 through 2011, Koch private foundations gave $41.2 million to 89 nonprofit organizations and an annual libertarian conference.
