MIAMI, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LEBEC, a global innovative finance platform, today announced a strategic investment from CCM Holding Company, LLC, the parent company to Community Capital Management, LLC (CCM). CCM is a $7 billion institutional asset manager with over 25 years of experience seeking to deliver competitive risk-adjusted market-rate returns alongside impact solutions.

LEBEC's unique approach directs more capital toward leading innovations addressing systemic risks in sectors such as water, regenerative agriculture, energy, health, and infrastructure.

Founded in 1998, CCM develops market-rate strategies for institutional clients seeking strong financial performance and tangible societal outcomes. Its investment in LEBEC extends that legacy into private markets innovation. By combining CCM's institutional scale and track record with LEBEC's deep expertise in asset management, innovative finance, and social entrepreneurship, the partnership bridges the critical gap between traditional investing and the frontline solutions building a resilient global economy. It sets a powerful precedent for how the financial industry can unite to close the global $5 trillion annual financing gap for solutions addressing systemic risks.

"We are truly honored to welcome CCM as a partner," said Alix Lebec, Founder and CEO of LEBEC. "The world's most pressing challenges cannot be solved in silos. This investment validates our approach to mainstreaming innovative finance—by building diversified private market portfolios across interconnected sectors and driving narrative change across media and entertainment. Advancing human dignity and global resilience is essential for our planet and economy. To succeed, the financial innovations driving this work must be made understandable and culturally visible to all audiences through media and entertainment. Alyssa Greenspan and the entire CCM team share our vision for moving capital differently, and their trust in our team will accelerate our impact."

"CCM is making a strategic investment in LEBEC based on our belief in Alix and her team's vision and execution," said Alyssa Greenspan, CFA, CEO and President of CCM. "The team brings clear purpose, deep experience, and a fresh approach to directing capital to businesses and projects with meaningful impact. We are excited to support LEBEC's growth and encourage other investors and partners to engage with the work they are leading."

This announcement follows the recent launch of LEBEC Capital Partners, which will construct and invest in diversified, multi-asset class portfolios of specialized private market funds. These portfolios accelerate decarbonization, adaptation, and economic mobility solutions while targeting attractive risk-adjusted returns. LEBEC Capital Partners is uniquely positioned to address emerging investment blind spots—most notably the physical infrastructure, water, and energy dependencies associated with scaling technologies like AI.

"Scaling innovations across critical resources like water, food, and clean energy must accelerate exponentially this decade," said Julia Wilkinson, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer at LEBEC. "Despite this urgency, traditional markets consistently overlook the private market funds driving these solutions. LEBEC Capital Partners fills this gap. The portfolios of private market funds we invest in are scaling frontline solutions, and the data is clear: investing in decarbonization and adaptation could unlock an estimated $1.4 trillion in broader economic benefits—proving that systemic solutions are a fundamental driver of long-term value creation."
