For institutional investors, impact investing provides opportunities to diversify their portfolio and meet member demands. For philanthropic trusts and foundations, impact investing is a way to deepen their mission and create greater impact through the combined effect of investment and grant making activities.
Impact investing provides opportunities to investors across all asset classes including real assets, private equity, fixed income and emerging hybrids such as social impact bonds.
From financing social housing and renewable energy to delivering positive outcomes in health and education, impact investing spans different types of organisation, sectors and locations. What remains consistent is the intention to achieve measurable social impact alongside a financial return.
There are many ways investors can deepen their impact and deliver positive social outcomes.
