Impact investing has boomed over the past decade, driven by the ethos that financial performance can go hand-in-hand with social and environmental impact. But more wealth holders now see the value of putting impact before investment while prioritizing people and planet. |

As India completes its seventh year of mandatory corporate social responsibility (CSR), it is a good time to reflect on what we’ve learned about how CSR programs achieve impact. Our interviews with a number of programs provide guidance to others for how to improve the impact of their CSR programs. |

Complimentary Webinar
May 11, 2021 1 p.m. ET /10 a.m. PT
Early impact investment often focused on achieving market-rate returns alongside doing social or environmental good. But a lesser-known approach concentrates on impact above all, even at the price of lower financial returns. By doing so, “impact-first” funders can extend a financial lifeline to critical enterprises that might be unattractive to conventional investors.
Join our panel of experts as we discuss recent research to address the barriers to impact-first investing. We’ll also lift up inspiring examples of investors and their work. And we’ll provide a three-step map for anyone interested in investing for impact first: 1) clarify your commitment to impact, 2) rely on trusted collaborators to set the stage, and 3) choose the investment options that meet your needs.
