Toniic Tracer is a new platform that enables investors, entrepreneurs, and funds to share and compare data about impact investments, along with corresponding goals, performance, and outcomes. 

Toniic created Tracer with the goal to create alignment between these different audiences by facilitating a common structure for reporting intentions and outcomes. We hope that this will ease the reporting burden for issuers and make it easier for investors to deploy more capital to impact. 

Toniic Tracer is the new core platform for T100, Toniic’s longitudinal study of the progress of impact investors toward activating entire portfolios for impact.

  • How does Toniic Tracer build the field of impact investing?
    Data in the system is anonymized, aggregated, and shared with Toniic’s Academic Research Consortium led by the Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth (“CSP”)  at the University of Zurich. The academics use the data to power academic research in the field of impact investing and behavioral finance.  
    Toniic itself also draws on the data to report on the progress and strategies that private investors participating in the T100 Project are using to deepen their positive net impact.  The Toniic team uses Tracer to conduct investor surveys to strengthen analysis and support academic research aimed at developing a 21st-century portfolio theory that incorporates social and environmental impact in decision making.
  • Will my data be secure?
    Toniic is committed to data security and is following best practices for keeping your data safe and secure. We store data in an encrypted database, comply with GDPR requirements, and employ two factor verification of identity.
