Impact Investing Conference Survey Results Released!

It’s clear there are a large number of impact investing ‘intrapreneurs’ within organisations that are looking to move their group forward in the space. They need to be supported or their organisations look to stand to lose significant intellectual capital in what will become an ever-increasing market. Most have less than 1% in impact, so significant room for growth, especially as nearly 80% want to increase their allocations over the next 5 years. And lastly, Private Markets are the asset type of choice, and within that, the asset class of choice in private equity.

To help move the needle, WON has set up a campaign on change.org#5by25 to lobby the Australian government to mandate Australian Super funds to have at least 5% of their total assets invested in impact investments.

Thank you for following our series!

When we apply an ‘impact lens’ to investing in private markets we focus on what positive social and/or environmental outcomes we can drive with our capital and the return we can deliver on that capital. Even if we were to be so bold as to just take ‘impact’ out of the equation, we would soon realise that we are in fact also investing in global mega trends. Trends that are shaping our future and cannot be avoided.

The United Nations Economist Network identified 𝗳𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗰, 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀. There is of course, climate change, but there are also demographic shifts, urbanisation, digital and disruptive technologies, and inequality.

This conference will spotlight those investible opportunities and how they all 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀.

• 𝗡𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘀, 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘂𝗺𝘀, 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆, including, but not limited to, addressing such areas as social advances in regulations and standards in impact, and financing programs to address youth recidivism in the State of NSW.

• 𝗢𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻-𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝘆𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗹𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲 to engage with your peers and the wider Australian impact community.
