Earth Capital
UK corporate advisor specialising in fundraising, M&A and value creation for innovative, high-impact driven businesses. Works closely with management teams and investors to unlock performance and build sustainable businesses, with a focus on climate and environmental sectors. Not a direct retail investment platform — access is through managed mandates and institutional relationships.
General Information
Earth Capital is a UK corporate advisory, fundraising and M&A firm focused on private markets and sustainable investment. It works with high-impact businesses across climate and environmental sectors, providing relationship-driven support to management teams and investors on capital raising, transactions and value creation. In March 2025, Earth Capital announced a partnership with JP Jenkins to expand sustainable investment opportunities and improve liquidity for private-company shareholders.
Earth Capital is not a retail investment platform. It does not offer a direct-to-consumer product. Access to any investment opportunity is via advisory mandates and professional-only introductions, typically to institutions, family offices and qualifying HNW/Sophisticated investors under FSMA financial-promotion exemptions.
How does it work?
Companies engage Earth Capital for corporate advisory work — fundraising rounds, M&A, secondary transactions or strategic value creation. Investors are typically introduced on a bilateral basis where Earth Capital has an advisory mandate to raise capital for a specific transaction, or through the JP Jenkins matched-bargain facility for secondary liquidity in unlisted sustainable companies. Any subscription or purchase is executed off-platform via signed transaction documents with the issuer or its authorised placing agent.
Products & services
Corporate advisory: fundraising, M&A, capital-structure and value-creation advice for sustainable and climate-focused private companies.
Secondary liquidity: via the JP Jenkins matched-bargain platform, Earth Capital helps existing shareholders in sustainable private companies find liquidity and helps new investors access these names without waiting for an IPO.
Fees: corporate-advisory fees are negotiated per mandate (typical structure includes a retainer plus a success fee on completed transactions). No standard retail-facing fee schedule is published.
Minimums: none published; transaction-specific and set by the issuer / mandate.
Who is it for?
For institutions, family offices, and qualifying Professional, High Net Worth or Sophisticated investors seeking access to private sustainable-investment opportunities, and for growth-stage sustainable companies seeking a specialist corporate advisor. Not suitable for ordinary retail investors — the offering is transaction-specific and comes without standard retail-platform protections.
Strengths and risks
Strengths: deep sector focus on climate and sustainability; established relationships with management teams and specialist investors; partnership with JP Jenkins broadens secondary liquidity for otherwise-illiquid private holdings; advisory model aligns incentives on transaction completion.
Risks: individual transactions are concentrated, illiquid and can result in total loss; matched-bargain markets can have wide bid–ask spreads and infrequent trading; corporate-advisory relationships mean Earth Capital may be paid by the issuer, creating a potential conflict that must be disclosed; no FSCS/FOS protection on unlisted-share transactions.
Red flags & watch points
Verify FCA authorisation for the specific entity signing the engagement letter or arranging the deal.
Read the transaction memorandum in full — pay attention to share class, pre-emption rights, drag/tag provisions and any founder or manager warranties.
Independently value secondary-market shares — matched-bargain prices can lag NAV or public comps by long periods.
Confirm the advisory relationship — whether Earth Capital acts for the issuer, the seller, or you as investor, and how it is compensated.
