To all those who represent pension fund members, are you asking this crucial question: ‘Would you like to achieve a positive social and environmental impact alongside a financial return?’ If not, why? Impact investments can have a market-rate risk-adjusted return just like any other potential investment. No more excuses, pension fund members can be investing in a world worth living in where their income actually has a value. That is fiduciary duty. #impactinvesting Roger Mattingly
How impact funds in the private and public markets perform compared to traditional investments was covered in this blog of conversations from our all-stakeholder event. The discussion shared insights on impact integration and research from our Impact Lens 'Impact investment performance' report, with the following takeaways: Perception – ensure everyone understands there is not a trade-off between impact and performance. Advice gap – consultants can combine points on financial returns and impact performance when guiding investments – including the adverse impacts. Governance – have sustainability professionals at Board level to help increase the interest and time allocated to consider impact more holistically. #ImpactIntegration #Governance #PensionsforPurpose https://ow.ly/QeZS50QwChR
