Meet Your Host: Eva Yazhari

This week, tune in for a deep dive with our co-host, Eva Yazhari! She shares what it was like to grow up with artist parents, being a "Wolf of Wall Street," and what it means to live purposefully.
 
Eva is the founder and CEO of Beyond Capital Fund, an impact investment fund focused on early-stage companies in India and East Africa. She is an investor with 15 years of experience investing in social impact in emerging markets and public markets. Eva is also the founder of The Conscious Investor, an online magazine that sheds light on the world of impact investing. Previously, Eva was a Vice President at EnTrust Capital Inc., a Wall Street hedge fund of funds. She specialized in due diligence and underlying fund portfolio analysis.
 
"My personal mission of speaking more widely about impact investing comes back to my observation that over the past 10 years of being an impact investor, I saw that there is a fundamental disconnect, "says Eva. "There is a missing conversation around how to make your money more consistent with your values, one step at a time. I really see it as something that needs to be fixed in the system. And weirdly, nobody's doing it right now!"
