CubeLynx

We deliver leading modelling and financial solutions to clients who demand the best. CubeLynx has experience across a wide range of sectors including Social Investment and Charities.

We have been appointed by MIND to support in all modelling aspects across various business functions and areas. Their strategy and method of reporting changed to more on focus on supporting the people disproportionately affected by mental health issues. We restructured their reporting methods to show investors and the public how each target mentioned is being tackled and how their resources are applied.

We have also worked closely with Big Society Capital and the Resolution Foundation, an independent think-tank focused on improving the living standards of those on low-to-middle incomes. Cubelynx built a model that projected financial returns in order to inform fund design; investment strategy and engage with potential funders. It allows a wide range of investment types and capital structures.

Resolution Foundation – WorkerTech Fund Model

Who was the organisation you worked to support?

Resolution Foundation

What was their challenge?

Resolution Foundation are an independent think-tank focused on improving the living standards of those on low-to-middle incomes. They are launching their first social investment fund to back ventures using technology to change the world of work for the better.
At the early stage of fund design, they needed a fund financial model to estimate financial returns in order to inform fund design and engage with potential funders, such as Big Society Capital.

What was the support you provided / offered

Flexibility – given the wide potential scope for the fund, the modelling was developed to allow for a wide range of investment types (pre-seed and seed equity, quasi-equity, loan), management fee mechanisms and funding solutions (grant investment, subordinated and senior investors of the fund)....

What was the impact or outcome of support?

Resolution Foundation used the model to inform and update their investment strategy and to provide the insights and outputs required to engage with potential funders. The fund is set to launch in 2024.

We often see financial models pulled together last minute, in a rush, at the final stages of a project or proposal, sometimes revealing issues that are too late to fix. This project is a great example of the value in creating financial models early-on in a process and their usefulness as powerful decision-making tools, informing other aspects of a process.
