THE FINANCIAL SECTOR IS A FUNDAMENTAL PLAYER IN THE IMPACT ECONOMY
To achieve the Impact Economy, an economy in which work, entrepreneurship, innovation, and technology engender inclusive welfare, the world needs sustainable finance. In sustainable finance, loans, investments, and other financial services serve people and the planet instead of just shareholders. This means that social and environmental objectives hold the same weight as those attached to financial profit.
The financial sector is uniquely positioned to accelerate the transition to an Impact Economy, it can mobilise capital, direct funds into areas that benefit society, and appropriately price social and environmental risks.

Strategic value of Impact Measurement and Valuation
Impact measurement is, therefore, of specific strategic significance to financial institutions. Firstly, measuring impact helps contribute more effectively to societal challenges. Secondly, understanding impact allows financial institutions to proactively manage their risks through anticipating and preparing for future (financially) material topics. Thirdly, Impact valuation allows organisations to create and execute a comprehensive strategy where trade-offs can be compared and managed in terms of risk, return and impacts. Lastly, it helps to communicate credibly about value creation and build trust from stakeholders and society.
