Our Growth
Ballast Rock is a fast growing company with large aspirations.
As a growing, nimble company we think of social impact as not only “do no harm”, rather as actively and positively contributing to improving the lives of our team, our investors, our residents, and the communities in which we invest, all of which raises the bar for our industry.
How We Diversify
For us, diversity is bringing people of different backgrounds, experiences, and cultures together to question what is best for our clients and to poke holes at industry norms.
We are committed to being strategic drivers of change and equality for all of our stakeholders — our team members, clients, partners, local communities, and society at large. We believe we have a broader responsibility to the world in which we live and work.
Our Mission
We Aim
to drive positive change for our team members by providing professional opportunities to people of all backgrounds including different races, ethnicities, nationalities, genders, sexual identities, disabilities, and others.
We Lead
by example, aim to be transparent with our expectations, and model inclusion. In keeping with our mission and values, we understand that to best manage risk we need to create a questioning, collaborative, and thoughtful culture driven by experience and differing viewpoints.
We Believe
diversity brings valuable perspectives to our work. Inclusion ensures that those perspectives make for more intelligent and innovative solutions for our clients. We are committed to cultivating an environment that fosters respect, equity, and opportunity for all our stakeholders.
We actualize our corporate mission by:
Curating access to investments that offer attractive risk adjusted return, that historically have only been available to institutional & high net worth individuals.
Upgrading the communities in which we invest; creating safe, clean and affordable homes for working families.
Being part of the solution to combating climate change by financing energy transition projects.
