Andy Kuper: Leapfrog and Temasek enter record $500M impact deal

Good Future

It’s exciting to have reached episode 71 of the Good Future podcast, and, it’s a pleasure to welcome back Andy Kuper, who was a guest in the early days of the show. Andy is of course the founder and CEO of Leapfrog, a global private equity firm focussed squarely on having a positive impact in fast growing economies. The need to divert capital towards high-impact investments has only grown in the wake of the covid 19 pandemic, and that means Leapfrog have been busy. They’ve recently signed an unprecedented agreement with the Singaporean investment company, Temasek. It’s more than a deal, it’s a partnership, that will see the state-owned investment company commit half a billion dollars to be deployed as the cornerstone investment for a range of Leapfrog’s future funds.
