“More and more investors – including younger people – are demanding that their investments are channeled into funds that have positive impact for communities and the environment,” said IFC CEO Philippe Le Houérou to KalderaNews. “We have a historic opportunity to grow this market — and that’s good news for the planet and the communities around the world.”
In public markets involving stocks and bonds, the report estimates that investor appetite could be as much as $21 trillion. An additional $5 trillion could come from private equity, nonsovereign debt, and venture capital. Turning this appetite into actual investments will depend on the creation of investment opportunities and investment vehicles that enable investors to pursue impact and financial returns in ways that are sustainable.
