Founded in 2012, Encito Advisors is a boutique investment bank ensuring our planet’s long term sustainability by driving transformative capital into global climate action.
The name Encito is inspired by the Latin word incito, meaning to accelerate or inspire. We replaced the “i” with an “e” to reflect our singular focus on energy, environment, and entrepreneurship — the pillars of climate action.

All exclusively within climate-aligned sectors such as clean energy, e-mobility, environment, cleantech, and sustainability.

Our edge lies in deep research. Before taking on any mandate in a new sub-sector, we invest 3 to 12 months in primary and secondary research

isn’t sold — it powers our ability to identify scalable companies, credible investors, and accelerate execution.
