Asset Owners Making Progress on Impact Investing

In this OnImpact article, John Treadgold reports on key findings from the Global Impact Investing Network’s (GIIN) research brief on Institutional Asset Owners: Approaches to setting social and environmental goals. Treadgold highlights that, “The potential for institutional asset owners, ie. super funds, to drive a step-change in adoption of impact investing has long been discussed, but so far no consistent approach has been adopted. This month, the Global Impact Investor Network (GIIN) has published an issue brief that goes to the source, surveying its global member base of major asset owners about their progress on impact investing, and the challenges they’re facing.”
