Summary
This episode breaks down Indigenous investment, global capital markets, outcomes financing and where the next wave of Indigenous-led impact is heading. 🎧 Jeff Cyr: Founder & Managing Partner, Raven Indigenous Outcomes Funds; CEO, Raven Indigenous Impact Foundation, returns to explain how outcomes-based financing is scaling across Canada and capturing international investment attention. In Part Two , Jeff goes deeper into how Raven’s model differs from other outcomes funds in the UK, US and Australia—centering community decision-making, prioritizing Indigenous leadership on every project, and designing investments that deliver both measurable societal benefit and fair investor returns. You’ll hear how Raven’s model is: Reshaping the perception of Indigenous economies Structuring returns that look and feel like fixed-income products Attracting capital from Switzerland, Germany and the United States Scaling impact by running multiple $5–$10M investments rather than chasing mega-projects Working with governments to shift how public dollars are deployed Jeff also shares what’s coming next: A national pipeline of First Nations projects, partnerships with governments seeking to accelerate outcomes rather than react to crisis, and a growing international awareness that Indigenous-led funds are delivering both impact and market returns. Whether you’re an investor, policymaker, development leader or a member of an Indigenous community exploring capital partnerships, Part Two shows the scale of what’s possible—and why Indigenous leadership is shaping Canada’s most exciting economic opportunities.
