What is impact investing?

Impact investing is a means of tackling complex social and environmental problems with economic opportunities in local, regional and global contexts. This means actively placing capital in organizations, businesses and funds that generate socialand/or environmental impact and a financial return to the investor.

If you’re new to impact investing or interested in learning more, the Social Finance Forum programming will include a rich set of workshops and sessions tailored to all levels of familiarity with the sector.
