Soliko is a French solidarity investment company focused on improving housing conditions for people experiencing homelessness, inadequate housing or social exclusion.1 It was created in 2014 by AG2R La Mondiale and the Fondation pour le Logement des Défavorisés, formerly known as the Fondation Abbé Pierre.31 In 2025, the organisation adopted the name Soliko as part of a change in scale and identity.3
The organisation is headquartered at 10 Boulevard de Bonne Nouvelle, 75010 Paris, France.11 Its activities extend across France: Soliko provides financial resources to associations that produce social housing or support people experiencing housing difficulties throughout the country.8 Its projects include housing-insertion schemes and social residences in locations such as Montpellier, Saint-Étienne and Thiers.
Soliko uses solidarity investment to support housing providers and other organisations working against inadequate housing. Its activities include acquiring property for conversion into housing, providing participatory loans and guarantees to support partners’ liquidity and development, and operating a dedicated fund for strategic support. The organisation is approved as an ESUS—an “entreprise solidaire d’utilité sociale”—and its shares carry the Finansol solidarity and transparency label.9
Soliko reports that more than €77 million has been committed, over 930 people have invested, and housing conditions have been improved for more than 4,000 people over 12 years.1 It aims, with its partners, to invest €100 million over five years and provide housing for more than 1,500 people.1
Governance is handled by the management board of Romainville Gestion, which sets strategy, approves investments and manages the company with its salaried team.12 Public company information identifies Romainville Gestion among the organisation’s leaders, alongside Jean-Luc Durand, Marlène Fargues, Anne-Lise Compaoré and other representatives.11
