Is impact finance the future of investing?
As Chair of the Impact Investing Institute, I recently sat down with Lukwesa Burak of ITN to explore this question.
We discussed how impact investing is reshaping capital markets toward a fairer, greener, and more resilient future, the importance of purposeful capital in tackling society’s biggest challenges, and the untapped potential in government partnering with the impact economy.
So I think my answer is clear! What's yours?

Impact investing and traditional investing are not necessarily mutually exclusive. They both represent different points along a spectrum of financial strategies.
Impact investing challenges the notion that financial success must come at the expense of positive societal and environmental outcomes. This approach offers a compelling alternative for investors driven by a desire for purpose-driven capital deployment.

🧠✨ Three Key Learnings from our first co-hosted event with The Impact Office (TIO), covering the fundamentals and providing guidance on Impact Investing:
1. Every individual’s (and family’s) route to impact is different – embracing your uniqueness is equally important to learn from others’ experiences.
2. The foundation of an investment strategy and thesis lies in articulating the vision and values you want to see resonate in your impact investments.
3. Measurement of impact is key! Find a framework that makes sense for your family’s investment thesis.

One of the most exciting things I've come to discover recently is that there are investors who are increasingly clear about the kind of world they want. And they're ready to organize others to build that. I'm so moved and excited about this post by Katie Boland -- and that Delta Fund will be at our Chicago Summit September 25-26. Katie's post illustrates the kind of leading thinking that I believe will be changing the face of impact investing in the years to come. I'm so grateful for pioneers like Smitha DasDaan Besamusca Anjali Fernandes Kumar Garg Sue Ernster Tom Marthaler John O'ShaughnessyKayoko Lyons, CFAGregory LaneJake BarnettAmy BrakemanEvan SteinerDavid EricksonTyler BlickhanAaron TanakaKim GriffinYichen I. F.Blake JonesGerardo EspinozaAnn FedorchakCasey Fannon, CFADamilola Odetola who have been building a new notion of what it means to be an impact investor over the past decade.... I'm thrilled to get to know leaders like Katie Boland and Brian Boland who are encouraging us to keep asking the hard questions and moving forward.
Here's an excerpt of Katie's post: "If impact investors say they aren't in it for the money, that they just want to see good work get done, and a social/environmental return (vs a financial one) why not just give free money with no expectation of pay back?”
"In this economy that I am working toward, impact investing is about more than just moving capital; it’s about shifting culture and power.
"“Market returns” have exploitation baked into the return and for too long we have ignored these parts of a market (or above market!) return. By normalizing a more modest financial return alongside larger positive impact on people and the planet, people will be able to benefit from the use of their capital while making our economy more sustainable and less extractive.
"The scale of issues like climate change and poverty requires a new approach. By reimagining impact investing, we've attracted more capital to social and environmental causes, addressing these issues at a scale that was previously unimaginable. Ideally this approach will democratize the ability to invest in positive change, allowing everyone to contribute to and benefit from investments in their communities and the causes they care about.
"Wealthy people should not be the deciders of what gets fixed and when and how. Everyone should get a say in what is invested in. It shouldn’t just be “accredited investors” that can make a return on investing in the climate or their own community infrastructure.
"When investors are the only stakeholders that matter then the impact is only what they want. And if they ONLY want a financial return then people and the planet suffer. And if they want NO financial return then often communities and environments are still extracted from but the outsized returns go to those in power, yet again.

Katie's post continues... I really encourage you to take a read and share.
New blog post! Recently I was asked why impact investors would want any financial return if they truly care about impact. It got me thinking about what I think impact investing, in it's best form, does for people, the planet, and, yes, for profit. https://lnkd.in/gTiEgdFe
