From original article:

"Antony Bugg-Levine, Managing Director at the Rockefeller Foundation, told SocialFunds.com, 'Impact investing stems from the recognition that in the 21st Century, we're not going to solve our increasingly complex and increasingly expensive global problems with philanthropy and government capital alone. In order to create the world that we want to see in the 21st Century, it is imperative that we figure out how to mobilize some of the $80 trillion that is available in for-profit capital markets toward social issues.'"
