In a world where access to quality healthcare remains a pressing concern, MTIP, a Swiss-based healthtech-focused growth equity firm, has emerged as a driving force.

As an Article 9 fund investment manager, MTIP focuses on aiding economically or socially disadvantaged communities receive the preventive care, diagnosis, treatments and monitoring they need.

By investing strategically in healthtech innovation, MTIP fosters social cohesion, social integration and improves access to quality healthcare. In line with MTIP’s commitment to trust and acceleration, the GP recently introduced its MTIP Impact Tracker, designed to measure the contributions of its investments from Fund II portfolio companies in tackling inequality in access to quality healthcare.

At the core of MTIP’s Impact Tracker lies the Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability and Quality (AAAQ) framework, a conceptual reference that evaluates the effectiveness and equity of healthcare interventions.

These four pillars provide a comprehensive lens through which the impact of MTIP’s investments can be assessed. To generate and track impact, MTIP collaborates with its portfolio companies to define individual key performance indicators (KPIs) that align with the AAAQ framework. These KPIs are specific to their business models and in accordance with the goals and objectives MTIP sees fit for each portfolio company.

By providing resources, expertise and guidance, MTIP actively supports its portfolio companies in achieving their KPIs. Regular reporting and monitoring of these KPIs allows the growth equity firm to assess each company’s progress over time, identify areas for improvement and steer the companies accordingly. Additionally, the tool captures seven key ESG management metrics, ensuring that none of the investments significantly harm other relevant social or environmental objectives. Thus, the Impact Tracker guarantees that MTIP’s investments prioritise the crucial aspects of healthcare that directly improve access and quality.

Rahel Hafner, sustainability and finance manager at MTIP, says: “The MTIP Impact Tracker utilises robust metrics and data-driven analysis, quantifying the effectiveness and progress of each portfolio company in addressing healthcare disparities. This powerful tool enables us to measure impact, support the companies where needed, make informed decisions and optimise MTIP’s future portfolio.”

By realising added value for real-world societal impacts alongside financial returns, MTIP aims at a double value-creation strategy. Since the investees have social impacts at the core of the business model, the positive social impacts should correlate positively with improved financial performance and hence, societal gains and investor profit should go hand in hand. While the MTIP Impact Tracker is part of MTIP’s ESG strategy and focuses on sustainability impacts, the framework also incorporates financial factors to directly demonstrate the link between both dimensions of value creation.
