The impact investing sector has arrived in the mainstream. Major financial services institutions have entered the field, and size estimates of the sector range from $715 billion to $2.3 trillion. While much has been achieved so far, numerous opportunities to deliver impact still fail to attract investment.
ֱ partnered with Courageous Capital Advisors and the Catalytic Capital Consortium (C3) to develop a series of guidance notes for both new and experienced catalytic capital investors. Guidance notes 2 and 3 will be published later in 2022.
Top Takeaways
- Catalytic capital is needed to ensure that impact investing pushes farther, harder, and faster to reach the full range of solutions that can build a more equitable and sustainable future.
- Innovative strategies are pushing into new areas because they represent an opportunity to enable impact that otherwise would not be achieved.
- Catalytic capital often moves too slowly and fails to seize opportunities with the urgency and decisiveness needed to address the pressing issues of our day.
