ECAHLI Investment & ROI · Institutional Overview

Invest in Integrated Eco-Community
Nodes — Not Isolated Projects.

ECAHLI is a node-based, asset-backed eco-community platform. Each Node integrates housing, healthcare, education, employment, food systems, circular industry, and environmental stewardship into one governed, self-reinforcing operating system — designed for replication across geographies. The Kisumu flagship (Kenya) is the current institutional entry point.

Kisumu base case (v29): 16.5% base equity IRR · 2.80× Y5 DSCR · USD 73.1M CapEx · 30 revenue streams · 1,975-job employment ecosystem per node

The ECAHLI Model · How Capital Flows

One Node. Seven Zones.
Thirty Revenue Streams.

Capital enters a governed SPV. An ECAHLI Node is built — a fully integrated community of housing, healthcare, education, agriculture, circular industry, and environmental infrastructure. That Node generates multi-stream revenue, pays investors, and documents the system for replication in the next Node.

  1. 1
    Capital enters a governed, milestone-linked SPV
    A 90-day pre-development sprint (USD 500K) de-risks land, permits, governance, and stakeholder readiness before full capital deployment. A development stewardship fee of USD 1.506M (2% of core CapEx) is paid in tranches, only as milestones are met. Movement IV modules are all OFF by default and require IC approval to activate. The governance architecture is designed to DFI standards.
  2. 2
    A complete 450-hectare Node is built over 16 months
    Seven integrated zones: residential (250 community homes + 200 Wandiga-style affordable housing), agriculture and food systems, healthcare clinic, education and TVET campus, circular economy and industrial zone, hospitality, and carbon/MRV. Each zone is independently viable and generates its own revenue — but the system is designed so that each zone strengthens the others.
  3. 3
    30 revenue streams switch on progressively from Month 17
    Residential rents and sales, agricultural produce and processing, healthcare fees, education tuition, industrial leases, hospitality income, carbon credits (MRV-verified, ITMO-eligible under Kenya's NDC), and circular economy revenues. No single stream accounts for more than 25% of Year 5 revenue — structural diversification is designed in, not assumed. Y5 revenue: USD 42.8M; Y5 EBITDA: USD 17.8M (41.5% margin).
  4. 4
    Revenue pays investors according to the capital stack structure
    The 40/30/15/15 capital stack — equity, DFI concessional debt (AfDB + KCB: USD 31.75M), grants, and carbon revenue — compresses the overall cost of capital while maintaining equity IRR at 16.5% base. Equity payback at Year 7. Y10 equity MOIC: 3.65× (base); minimum downside: 1.44×. All distributions governed by IC-approved SPV documentation.
  5. 5
    The system is documented and replicated — each Node cheaper than the last
    Every construction decision, procurement relationship, governance mechanism, and operational system is documented for deployment in the next Node (Homa Bay and beyond). Each replication uses the proven supply chain, tested governance, and operational knowledge from Kisumu — materially reducing execution risk and capital cost with each subsequent deployment.
Kisumu Flagship · Current Investment Entry Point

Kisumu, Kenya — v29/v30
The Institutional Base Case.

ECAHLI Kisumu is a 450-hectare, 30-stream, seven-zone integrated eco-community Node on Lake Victoria — and the current institutional entry point for the ECAHLI platform. v29 is the canonical base case, independently investable without Movement IV. v30 adds 10 governed expansion modules (all OFF by default), described in the Movement IV section below.

Capital stack (40/30/15/15): 40% equity · 30% DFI concessional debt at ~6% p.a. (AfDB + KCB: USD 31.75M) · 15% grants/DFI facility · 15% carbon revenue. The blended stack is designed to compress the overall cost of capital while maintaining a 16.5% base equity IRR. A 90-day pre-development sprint (USD 500K) de-risks land, permits, governance, and stakeholder readiness before full deployment. Development stewardship fee of USD 1.506M paid in milestone-linked tranches, only during the development phase.

Investor Pathways · Institutional Entry Points

Movement IV · Governed Expansion Platform

Ten Optional Modules.
All Off by Default.

Movement IV is a governed expansion platform: 10 discrete modules that can be activated within an ECAHLI Node once the base Node is stable and generating revenue. Each module is OFF by default, separately capitalised, and requires IC approval to activate. They do not change the base-case IRR or DSCR. They are upside levers — not base-case assumptions.

IC governance: Each module requires a separate IC resolution to activate. Activation is binary (on/off per module). Module capitalisation is separately funded and does not draw on base-case equity. No module activation changes the base-case IRR (16.5%) or DSCR (2.80×). These are governed upside instruments — not embedded return assumptions.

Risk Framing · Governance Architecture

How ECAHLI Manages Risk
at the Institutional Level.

Serious capital requires a serious risk discussion. The following is a factual account of the risk categories, specific mitigants built into the ECAHLI Kisumu structure, and the governance mechanisms designed to protect investors across the Node lifecycle.

🏗

Construction & Delivery Risk

Mitigant: a 90-day pre-development sprint (USD 500K) de-risks land acquisition, environmental permitting, design finalisation, governance structure, and multi-stakeholder readiness before full capital deployment. A milestone-linked 16-month development programme ties the development stewardship fee (USD 1.506M, 2% of core CapEx) to verified delivery milestones, not time.

💱

Macro & FX Risk

Mitigant: KES/USD dual-currency financial model with explicit FX sensitivity analysis. DFI concessional debt at ~6% p.a. compresses the cost of capital relative to market rates. Carbon revenues in USD from international ITMO buyers provide a natural USD income stream. Structural diversification across 30 revenue streams limits single-exposure volatility.

📊

Demand & Operating Risk

Mitigant: 30 uncorrelated revenue streams across 7 zones — no single stream exceeds 25% of Y5 output. Structural demand for housing, healthcare, and food in Kisumu County is documented and measurable. The ECAHLI–CSTI MOU is executed; County Government of Kisumu engagement is active. Y5 DSCR of 2.80× provides substantial debt service coverage headroom.

🏛️

Political & Governance Risk

Mitigant: SPV governance with IC approval thresholds for material decisions; Movement IV activation requires separate IC resolution; no hidden royalties or founder economics outside disclosed stewardship fee. Dutch Stichting structure for ECAHLI Global Holdings provides European legal domicile and transparent governance. DFI co-investment creates institutional accountability.

⚠

Early-Stage Development Risk

ECAHLI Kisumu is in active development — not yet at full deployment scale. The financial models are complete and audited. Institutional relationships are active. The CSTI MOU is executed. The Paraguay Live Lab provides operational proof-of-model. However, investors participate at the most risk-bearing stage. Capital may be at risk. Returns are not guaranteed.

📋

Documentation & Due Diligence

All investment terms, risk disclosures, governance rights, return structures, fee arrangements, exit provisions, and legal protections are governed exclusively by binding documentation under applicable law. Nothing on this page constitutes a legal offer, contract, or guarantee. Independent legal and financial advice is strongly recommended before any investment decision.

"The question is not whether one integrated node can work. The question is whether the model can replicate intelligently — community by community, continent by continent — and whether founding investors have the governance and conviction to be inside that compounding from the beginning."

Petrus Van Der Merwe — Founder & Lifelong Chair, ECAHLI Foundation
