Amit Bouri: The G7’s Impact Taskforce And Infusing Impact Into Mainstream Investing

In this Forbes article, author Anne Field sits down with Amit Bouri, CEO and Co-Founder of the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) to discuss the recently released report from the G7’s Impact Taskforce. When speaking to the importance of safeguarding the integrity of impact investing, Bouri says the following, “It’s essential to the future of our financial markets. We’re operating at a time of declining trust and we’re seeing all over the world huge commitments to sustainability, to net zero, to the SDGs. That’s encouraging on the one hand, but also risks breeding cynicism if people don’t see real change. We think there’s a tremendous opportunity to rebuild trust through demonstrable impact results. That’s why the impact performance work we’re doing is so critical. You can imagine a world not that far off where investors are communicating their performance from a financial and impact perspective.”
