Ruben Koekoek en Björn Vennema duiken in de nieuwste aflevering van Money Matters in de vergroening van Tata Steel.Net voor de verkiezingen ondertekende de overheid een intentieverklaring om Tata Steel te verduurzamen. Maar hoeveel groener wordt de grootvervuiler écht met €2 miljard aan staatssteun? Is dit het begin van een duurzame toekomst, of slechts een illusie?
In dieser ESG-Talk-Folge spricht Stella Ureta Dombrowsky mit Christine Ter Bragg-Forstinger, CEO von G-Impact Capital, über die Bedeutung und die Zukunft von Impact Investing. Was unterscheidet wirkungsorientiertes Investieren von klassischem nachhaltigem Investieren? Wie wichtig ist die Intention hinter einer Investition? Und wie lassen sich Wirkung und Rendite sinnvoll miteinander verbinden? Christine bringt nicht nur umfassendes Fachwissen mit, sondern auch eine klare Haltung: Impact Investing bedeutet, Kapital gezielt dort einzusetzen, wo es echten, messbaren Unterschied macht – sozial, ökologisch und wirtschaftlich. Sie erklärt, warum echte Impact Investments vor allem im Private Market zu finden sind, welche Rolle ESG-Kriterien, Gender Lens Investing und technologische Innovationen wie Künstliche Intelligenz spielen – und wie wichtig Transparenz, Impact-KPIs und ein offener Dialog mit Unternehmensführungen sind.

In her book Adventure Finance, she writes to both investors and founders, helping them see how they interrelate.She has a crucial message for entrepreneurs, “There are funding options that do not require you to sell your soul, or to promise exponential growth, or to try and be something that you're not.”“You can be a community-owned organization and find funding,” she says. “You can be a small-scale–and continuing to be a small-scale organization. You can be very committed to your social purpose and not be willing to compromise that. It's about finding the right type of funding for you.”She notes that the trick is figuring out the right type of funding for your social enterprise.For investors, she says that good due diligence combined with portfolio construction can provide better than venture capital returns from investing in slow-growing, high-impact social enterprises.First, she notes that “most venture funds lose money.” It shouldn't be hard to beat that level of performance! (Of course, many VC funds do.)With careful diligence, investors can find social enterprises that can double or triple their money over reasonable periods, often using revenue-based financing rather than venture-style forms of equity. Building a portfolio of companies likely to repay debt can yield impressive results.Venture capitalists often invest with a gambler's eye for risk, hoping one or two investments in a portfolio skyrocket to the moon. This risky approach sometimes leaves portfolios with more holes than one winner can file. More careful analysis, paired with setting aside moonshot investments, allows investors to build portfolios of high-impact companies.Aunnie's superpower could be described as audacity, but she uses the term “crazy” to describe her willingness to confront conventional wisdom and chart a new path.AI Episode Summary* The podcast features Aunnie Patton Power, an author, Oxford professor, and expert on impact investing.* Aunnie's book, Adventure Finance, focuses on creating funding journeys that blend profit and purpose, exploring alternative funding options beyond traditional avenues.* The book addresses founders and funders interested in mission-driven funding and offers various options for them.* Aunnie highlights the importance of understanding oneself and the organization when embarking on a funding journey.* One key message from the book is that there are funding options beyond traditional routes, allowing organizations to align with their values and mission without compromising.* The conversation shifts to impact investing and the need for investors to create toolkits, including various funding options tailored to specific challenges like supporting female entrepreneurs.* Aunnie emphasizes the importance of impact-linked incentives in funds, urging investors to design strategies that align with their mission and goals.* The discussion delves into due diligence and portfolio construction, stressing the need for thoughtful scrutiny and diversification to achieve better-than-venture returns with lower risk.* Aunnie shares insights into her superpowers, including her ability to convene and facilitate discussions, as well as her fearlessness in pursuing innovative and radical ideas in the field of impact investing.* Aunnie discusses a recent accomplishment, challenging the impact investing industry to adopt impact-linked compensation, and shares ongoing research on the subject, aiming to change the conversation and make impact-linked compensation more prevalent in the field.How to Develop Audacity As a SuperpowerAunnie's audacity–forgive me for using my description over hers–is powerful. She shared a story to illustrate how she uses it:About a year ago, I was at the GIIN conference, the Global Impact Investing Network conference, and made, I would say, what I kind of thought was a bit of a controversial statement on the stage. I said that I didn't think that impact funds should be able to call themselves impact funds if they didn't have some sort of impact-linked incentives in there as a fund. It sparked some controversy. There were some great discussions on some of the different platforms and things like that. I got a lot of people saying, “Well then, how do we do it? How do we do impact linked carry? How do we do impact linked bonuses?” So, for the past ten months, I've done a piece of research work with a research team. We've done a survey of 200 GPs and LPs, and we're about to release the report. That is quite a substantial report on the considerations you need to consider and the framework to do impact-linked compensation.We had over 100 funds that do impact-linked compensation that we were able to engage with, which is more, I think, than anyone in the industry knew was possible. So, even though it's more mainstream than most of my work because it's dealing with traditional funds, I'm quite proud of the fact that now we have this data and this guide to impact-linked compensation.That guide to impact-linked compensation is excellent evidence of both Aunnie's audacity and her ability to back it up.Aunnie offered some tips for being more audacious:* Take courage!* Remember, you can shape the world.* Lean into what you think is right.* Start with small steps.* Push yourself to be more radical and push boundaries and perspectives.* Recognize what needs to be done and take responsibility for doing it.By following Aunnie's example and advice, you can make audacity an arrow in your quiver. With practice, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileAunnie Patton Power (she/her):I like to say that I am an Academic, Author, Advisor and Angel Investor. The ImPact and Oxford.Biographical Information: I specialize in creating innovative financial structures and strategies to create positive social and environmental impact. I teach innovative finance at the University of Oxford and the London School of Economics. I write and research on innovative finance. My first book, Adventure Finance, was published in 2021, and I'm currently writing my second. I also advise family offices, foundations and other funders globally around innovative financing.

We talk a lot about impact investing on this show, and while we tend to focus on the deals and the companies, we often gloss over the more challenging process of impact measurement and management. Right now is an important time to explore these issues, because the structures of impact investing are at an inflection point. The market has realised the importance of using consistent systems, and the frameworks are starting to consolidate, they're harmonising. Today we have Dean Hand on the show to help us explore impact measurement and management, she's Chief Impact Officer at the GIIN (the Global Impact Investment Network), and she's had long experience with impact reporting, both at the GIIN, which is a pivotal player in developing these impact measurement and management systems. In this episode Dean explains both the origins and the utility of the leading frameworks that the GIIN manages. But we also explore the broader alphabet soup of frameworks, standards and principles that are out there. And, on this important topic, I want to take the research further. So I'm going to take the insights from this episode with Dean, and from the next few episodes with other leading practitioners, and pull it all together into a special report. It'll have input from global leaders in the space, with case-studies highlighting leading practice in the market. It should be out soon, but if you don't want to miss it sign up for my newsletter, and you'll get it in your inbox as soon as it's released. You can sign-up on my website at www.johntreadgold.com and of course that's where you'll find all the show notes from the podcast, and all my other various writings and work. Enjoy!
Startup Boards -- Impact Metrics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In raising funding, you need to show your metrics. Startups in the impact space should also show their impact metrics, as investors will look for your results there. A common mistake by impact companies is to focus on the size of the market to be served and the needs in those markets. Instead, you should measure the actual impact results of your business on the market you are serving and show those results. For example, how many students graduated, how many bottles of plastics were removed from the waste stream, how many students improved their test scores? Focus on the primary impact which is on the customer, rather than the secondary impact which is on the employee of the business. There are several metric systems, including GIIN's IRIS+ metrics (), the IRIS Thematic Taxonomy (), and the Impact Management Project (). In short, no one system covers all impact sectors. Check out the Sustainable Development Goals site () for the categories of impact metrics to see where your deal fits. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let's go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: Check out our other podcasts here: For Investors check out: For Startups check out: For eGuides check out: For upcoming Events, check out For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please , share, and leave a review.

Devin: What do you think of as your superpower?Ben: I think I had a really interesting experience coming out of college. I grew up in, you know, upper-middle-class suburbs in New York of New York City. Then after college, my first job I got by happenstance was as an intern for the National Office of the NAACP. I was often the only white person in the room, which is just not an experience that I think a lot of my peers have ever had. I don’t know how to translate that into a superpower, but I think a level of empathy, a level of humility, understanding that while I have some great ideas, they’re just ideas.Devin: Meg, what do you think of as your superpower?Meg: I’m going to also say empathy, but I have a different life experience than Ben. I mean it in a slightly different way. I see my superpower as having the ability to help people tell their stories.Ben Wrobel, director of communications at Village Capital, and Meg Massey, a freelance journalist, have partnered to author a seminal new work called Letting Go: How Philanthropists and Impact Investors Can Do More Good by Giving Up Control.Meg summarizes the book succinctly: “We talk about how funders can and should integrate the people that they’re hoping to serve and support with their funding into the decision-making process.”There are two distinct audiences for the book, philanthropists and impact investors. While many do both, the two activities are treated mainly as two separate disciplines. Ben notes that the authors struggled about whether to include both but did because “a lot of the general principles are the same.”Village Capital is known for its unusual funding model. Ben explains:The model we have is called peer-selected investment, and we bring together 12 entrepreneurs that are working in the same sector, but not direct competitors. Twelve African entrepreneurs working on fintech, for instance. We put them through a training investment readiness program. Everyone gets a benefit out of it. But at the end of the program, the group engages in this very open, transparent ranking process and ultimately selects two of their peers to receive funding from our fund. Village Capital was formed to address a related problem in the venture capital community. “The reason village capital was created by Ross Baird and others early, early on was because venture capital, they argued, was a very closed off hegemonic sphere where a few people in a few cities are making decisions about our collective future,” Ben says.He notes, however, that Village Capital’s approach is different from the model he and Meg document in the book. “The mechanics of it are more about asking social entrepreneurs to make decisions rather than, let’s say, people living in a specific community or people with disabilities like we’ve seen with some other participatory funding models.” Meg notes that this has been a blind spot for impact investors. “Impact Investing has largely been about what you’re investing in and not how you’re doing it, that process. And there’s a lot of top-down.”The nonprofit arena has a similar problem, Ben says. “Philanthropy is largely male, largely white, largely based in a few places. Any sort of funding model where the people making decisions aren’t necessarily representative of the world at large is where participatory funding can be helpful.”Participating can be difficult, Meg notes. “If you haven’t taken the economics class, if you haven’t worked at a bank or just had any professional experience in finance, something—‘cap size,’ ‘market share’—like these are normal terms for investors, but they can be really intimidating to people who aren’t part—who don’t live and breathe that work.”Meg and Ben connected at the GIIN conference for impact investors in Amsterdam. Together, they saw a problem. “There’s a panel on support in sub-Saharan Africa that’s like five white guys from Europe,” Meg says.The book set out a nine rung ladder investors and philanthropists can climb to move from traditional to fully participatory models. Ben summarizes the process as three key steps.“At the very bottom there, you have a process that’s not participatory; it’s you simply make a decision and then move on with your life,” Ben says.“Up in the middle of the ladder is what we call consulting,” Ben explains. “Sometimes at its worst, it’s maybe token listening where you’re saying, ‘Hey, we’re going to hold a community meeting. We’re going to invite folks to join a zoom and weigh in on our investment strategy.’ But ultimately, there are no teeth to that.”“The top rung is true participation, and really the distinction there goes beyond listening,” Ben says. “It means that there is a mechanism in place for community members, for people who have lived experience to have a vote. In its purest form, it’s going to be a decision about who you invest in.”Meg provided an example. Mama Cash is a grantmaking organization that transitioned to becoming fully participatory. “They found that their staff, rather than kind of being grant analysts and making all these decisions, were facilitating the process of having their current and former grantees review applications and vote. They were given this role, and they were also trained in how to do it.” The participatory approach is snowballing, Meg says. “Ben and I were interviewing different participatory grantmakers around the world. They started a Google Group, which then turned into a Slack community, which went from those dozen people, now over seven hundred members around the world.”Empathy is a superpower both Meg and Ben use to enable their work.Superpowers for Good is a reader-supported publication. To support my work, consider becoming a paid subscriber.How You Can Develop Empathy As a SuperpowerBen sees empathy as being a radical step for investors and grantmakers. I think participatory grant-making and participatory investing, whether it's on the institutional level or on the personal level, is it's a really radical action to take. I mean, we try not to frame it as radical because, at the end of the day, it is just grant-making. It's not rocket science. But the empathy part of it is radical.Doing participatory funding “is a radical act of empathy,” he adds.Ben sees a foundational problem in his peer group. A lot of young people have the idea of wanting to save the world. There's a problem out there. It can be solved. And if it can be solved, it can be solved by the power of your own intellect. Just like a homework assignment at a liberal arts college, right? It's the perfect attitude for a generation raised on the like the optimism of the “West Wing” and the clean logic of “Freakonomics.”Ben sees this as arrogance that can impede finding more effective solutions, something he now recognizes in himself. “I’ll suddenly just get really into [a solution to a problem] and push and say, ‘This is what we need to be doing. This is it. Let’s go for it.’ And I forget that five days before, I knew nothing about this topic and still only have a third-hand understanding of it.”Humility and empathy enable a more inclusive approach that puts decision-making closer to the beneficiaries.Meg uses her empathy superpower to help other people tell better stories. She offers some storytelling advice. “You always have a beginning, middle and end, which seems obvious. You’d be surprised at how many stories are missing one of those components.”Then she notes that building tension is a critical element of a story. “What keeps us reading thrillers or watching TV shows is they build up what’s going to happen.”“The best writers for television, they’ve mastered managing that tension,” she adds.Grantwriters face significant challenges today. One complained to Meg about the labor-intensive forms and seemingly irrelevant questions. “We don’t speak the same language.”“Storytelling is a universal language,” Meg says.If you work at implementing steps to activate your empathy, like Meg and Ben, you can make it a superpower that can influence every other skill you have, enabling you to have more significant impact.

Le sujet : Sur La Martingale, on a déjà parlé d'épargne responsable, d'investissement dans les énergies renouvelables ou les arbres. Vous-même avez certainement déjà entendu parler de finance verte, finance responsable, finance durable ou de finance à impact. Greenwashing ou véritables ambitions ? Pas toujours facile de se repérer et de savoir comment faire une bonne action sans faire l'impasse sur les performances économiques. Avec Vincent Piche, Matthieu Stefani, cofondateur de CosaVostra, cherche à comprendre comment détecter les bons dossiers dans lesquels placer son argent pour faire la différence. L'invité du jour : Vincent Piche est le cofondateur de Kimpa, l'un des premiers Family Offices à impact en France. Après avoir occupé des postes à responsabilité chez Cartier en Europe et en Amérique du Nord, l'entrepreneur accompagne désormais les familles entrepreneuriales qui veulent contribuer à un monde durable en déployant leurs capitaux vers des projets à impact positif pour la planète. # Un Family Office, c'est quoi ? On parle ici d'un organisme de conseil qui traite la fortune d'une ou plusieurs familles à la tête d'un patrimoine. Kimpa est un Multi-Family Office, et travaille de ce fait avec plusieurs clients, qui possèdent plus de 5 millions d'euros d'actifs investissables. # Il n'y a pas de Planète B : Kimpa est un des premiers Family Offices qui prennent en compte la dimension d'impact et la mettent au centre de leur stratégie. En choisissant parmi les 17 objectifs du développement durable des Nations Unies, ses clients investissent en priorité dans les domaines qui les animent (éducation, croissance économique, changements climatiques… ). # Comment faire la différence entre la finance responsable, la finance durable et la finance à impact ? Là où la finance responsable exclut des secteurs polluants, la finance durable étudie la performance environnementale, sociale et de gouvernance des entreprises. Pour finir, la finance à impact vise une transformation juste et durable de l'économie réelle, et est capable d'apporter une preuve tangible de ces changements. # Un des éléments essentiels de la finance à impact, c'est son caractère intentionnel : la raison d'être de l'entreprise doit émaner de ses actions. # Pour être certain du succès des entreprises à impact avec lesquelles elle travaille, Kimpa suit des critères précis. Leurs équipes les sélectionnent si elles garantissent une double contribution positive, qui puisse répondre à deux objectifs de développement durable. Un bon exemple serait l'entreprise TooGoodToGo qui rencontre un succès croissant, en agissant à la fois pour la consommation responsable et contre la faim. # Le choix des placements peut également s'effectuer en suivant les propositions d'un club d'investisseurs. L'émergence des groupes comme Angels Santé, FrenchFounders ou 50 Partners répond à un besoin de sécurité : il existe un véritable intérêt à ne pas investir seul et à s'aligner sur un objectif commun. Quelques références citées dans l'épisode : Les objectifs de développement durable formulés par les Nations Unies, qui servent de premier guide pour qualifier les intentions d'un investisseur quant au bénéfice qu'il ou elle souhaite apporter à la planète et à la société via son investissement. Parmi les acteurs considérés pour leur impact tangible et pour le retour financier cohérent, les clients de Kimpa citent par exemple : les startups à impact Betteries, Too Good To Go, ou encore L'intendance les fonds Ring Mission, Blisce, 2050, 50 Partners Impact, Impact partners, Raise ou encore Norrsken La mesurabilité est le dernier pilier fondamental de l'investissement à impact. La mesure d'impact peut être réalisée grâce à des référents internationaux comme les 5 dimensions du GIIN par exemple ou via des agences spécialisées répertoriées ici par Weefin. Beaucoup de sujets évoqués s'appliquent aux investisseurs professionnels, mais pour les investisseurs retails, il existe d'autres plateformes : généralistes en actions : Eldorado, Crowdcube, Anaxago, en dette : October, MiiMOSA, ou spécialisées impact : Lita, Wiseed, Activeseed. Et entre les deux, les clubs de business angels : FrenchFounders via son Investors Club, ou Angel Santé, ainsi que des acteurs néo-banques engagées comme Green Got, ou helios, ou d'épargne comme Goodvest. Trois livres de chevet recommandés par Vincent Piche : Zero to One de Peter Thiel, pour la qualification des startups. Le Monde sans fin, une bande dessinée de Jean-Marc Jancovici et Christophe Blain. How to avoid a climate disaster de Bill Gates, pour ceux qui sortent atterrés de la COP 26 et qui souhaitent comprendre les enjeux climatiques. Ils y parlent aussi d'anciens épisodes : #12 - L'Impact Investing : Investir dans un Burger King pour avoir un impact social en gagnant de l'argent. avec Mathieu Cornieti d'IMPACT Partenaires #79 - Un an plus tard, comment les montres d'occasion ont résisté à la crise, avec Greg Blumenfeld du Guide des Montres #81 - Faut-il investir dans l'épargne responsable ? avec Joseph Choueifaty de Goodvest #148 GDIY : Jean-David Chamboredon – isai – Tout comprendre sur les fonds d'investissements Bonne écoute !

"The [investment market] we have in place now is not working for people, it's not working for the planet, and it's actually not working for most investors."This is according to Amit Bouri, Co-founder and CEO of the Global Impact Investing Network (the GIIN), an international community dedicated to increasing the scale and effectiveness of impact investing.Impact investments are made with the intention of producing a positive change, for example in addressing the climate crisis, while simultaneously earning financial returns. And it appears more and more investors are showing interest, as the impact investment market reached $715 billion in 2020, according to the GIIN, and is expected to keep rising.Climate Now sat down with Amit Bouri to discuss the growing impact investment market and its drivers, how climate change plays a role, and how investors can measure the impact of their dollars.

Impact investing has grown to be a $500 billion industry. In a recent GIIN survey, 80% of impact investors said that more transparency around impact investing results would help reduce "impact washing" and “industry-mission drift.” This week, we speak with Fleur Heyns. Fleur is the co-founder of Proof of Impact, a technology company that enables the tracking, measurement, and verification of the impact of investments. Fleur was previously the founder and CEO of Global Trader, now the largest online stockbroker and trading platform in South Africa. She has been an investor, advisor, and founding shareholder of many initiatives across South Africa and Europe including Emerge Education, ClearlySo, and Ardmore Design. "If you were able to make impact visible, and every single company were completely transparent, it is totally obvious that only the companies that have positive impact would thrive and be financially successful," says Fleur. "It's not what you do but how you do it that matters."
Mabinty's career took her from public affairs to international development engagements at the World Bank and GIIN looking at how best to leverage private sector financing to address societal challenges.
