Always energizing to spend a day with committed investors using the tools of business to innovate impact.

Huge congratulations to the Impact Principles on celebrating their 5th anniversary! Since being launched in 2019 with 58 founding Signatories, the Impact Principles have become the global benchmark for incorporating impact throughout the investment lifecycle, leading to increased transparency and a more rigorous approach to impact management. The signatories now include 184 organisations from 40 countries managing over $528 billion USD in impact assets, nearly half of the estimated global impact investing market. The adoption of the Impact Principles reflects a collaborative endeavour to enhance the practice of impact management and enable impact investing market scaling with integrity.
