The US SIF Foundation released a report that draws on best practices from the field, recommending ways to attract new accredited and institutional investments, as well as to develop products that are accessible enough to retail investors.
From the report: "The growing interest in “impact investing” both aligns with community investment goals and has the potential to expand the range of sectors and investment products that deliver community development outcomes. Our focus in this project and report was to capture this moment of transition and to explore what factors are at work that could support an increase of investment in community development, as well as those factors that might be limiting investor understanding of or interest in this space."
