Enabling Australian investors to contribute to a better world, locally.
Why Ethical Development Fund Australia?
There is a national shortage of renewable energy infrastructure, Specialist Disability Accommodation, affordable housing, medical and allied health facilities. We believe this issue shouldn’t exist, which is why investors like you are so important to building solutions. Ethical investing should aim to produce a return, yet also benefit another human being.
Choose to invest and impact the future of others.
There’s a choice to make when it comes to investing. Your money, invested with EDFA, makes a genuine impact amongst a diverse and often marginalised community of Australians who can experience a huge change in circumstance.
Together, let’s shape the future of those around us.
Investing where it counts.
Health Precincts
Australia has an ageing population and the healthcare system comes under additional strain, people want well located medical and allied health services.
The Funds Managers will continually monitor the market demands and trends for the medium to long term.
Key Worker Housing
The affordable housing sector has upwards of $400 billion worth of housing to be constructed over the next decade.
We work with community housing providers, Commonwealth institutions and not-for-profits to help fund housing in desirable locations for affordable housing programs.
Bioenergy
Australia has committed to zero net emissions by 2025 and there are genuine concerns about stranded assets in fuel and natural gas markets.
The private sector and all levels of government strongly support the transition of billions of dollars of these assets to renewable energy solutions.
Carbon Negative Data Centres
Australia is poised to evolve into a 1GW data center market in the coming years. Given the sector's substantial scale and influence on the environment, operators are compelled to champion sustainable practices. Consequently, they have emerged as influential advocates for the transition to renewable energy.
Disability Housing
The NDIS is Australia’s first national, Government-backed scheme specifically created for the 4.3 million Australians who have a disability, including 460,000 under 65 with a permanent and significant disability.
Around $9 billion worth of housing is required.
Exploring Options
As the EDFA grows, we will pursue additional avenues of ethical investing throughout Australia.
Our core focus in 2024 FY is Australia’s transition to renewable energy.
