Our capital allocation strategy has enabled us to develop a portfolio of asset-light and low-carbon intense businesses.
Our philosophy of building local businesses with global reach is transforming key areas of economic and social life. From food delivery to classifieds, our portfolio is focused principally on consumer internet services that address societal needs. These investments enable entrepreneurs to build and scale digital platforms where small and medium businesses can reach their customers online. Digital financial services, for example, extend access to online banking, credit and insurance provisions far beyond the reach of traditional bricks-and-mortar infrastructure.
