The Impact Chat #2

Impact Inves­t­ing: Can Impact Inves­t­ing Deli­ver on Its Pro­mi­ses?

Impact inves­t­ing is often heral­ded as the future of finan­ce, whe­re capi­tal is deploy­ed to achie­ve both finan­cial returns and tan­gi­ble social and envi­ron­men­tal bene­fits. But is the rea­li­ty living up to the pro­mi­se? As impact inves­t­ing moves into the main­stream, cri­ti­cal ques­ti­ons are emer­ging.
In this ses­si­on, we’ll dive into the­se and other con­tro­ver­si­al aspects of impact inves­t­ing. We’ll explo­re the latest trends, dis­cuss the chal­lenges of balan­cing impact with returns, and con­sider the future of this rapidly evol­ving field.

What we aim to dis­cuss:
-> Is impact inves­t­ing tru­ly making a dif­fe­rence, or is it just ano­ther form of green­wa­shing?
-> Can inves­tors rea­li­sti­cal­ly expect com­pe­ti­ti­ve finan­cial returns in the long run, or is the­re an inher­ent trade-off bet­ween impact and pro­fit?
-> How do we mea­su­re suc­cess in impact inves­t­ing when stan­dar­di­zed metrics are still elusive?

Join ses­si­on #2 of The Impact Chat as we del­ve into how impact inves­t­ing is res­ha­ping the invest­ment land­scape by com­bi­ning finan­cial returns with posi­ti­ve social and envi­ron­men­tal out­co­mes. As ESG con­side­ra­ti­ons beco­me incre­asing­ly cen­tral to invest­ment decis­i­ons, impact inves­t­ing repres­ents a powerful way to ali­gn our finan­cial goals with our com­mit­ment to sus­taina­bi­li­ty and social responsibility.
