Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at Phimpact Investments?

Alfredo Spilzinger serves as Chairman and the senior-most investment professional disclosed by the firm. Walter Fonseca is named as Managing Partner. The firm does not publicly describe its investment-committee structure or voting rights, though the partnership emphasizes that the managing partners collectively have more than 200 years of combined M&A, private-equity and venture-capital experience.

Which sectors does Phimpact explicitly avoid?

Phimpact does not publish a restricted-sector list. Its eight named areas of expertise — ranging from CleanTech and Deep Tech to Sports, Media & Entertainment — suggest a broad sustainability mandate rather than a narrow exclusionary policy. The unifying filter is the ESG integration within the investment decision process rather than a sectoral prohibition.
