Join leading international academics and South African asset owners on March 17th , as we launch a groundbreaking initiative to transform how to identify and measure investment impact and discuss the state of impact measurement globally how it has evolved what considerations have driven it and where are we now.
Effective impact measurement for long term investors as a necessary development to unlock members' funds to achieve developmental initiatives.
Over the coming year, this series will provide a collaborative forum in conjunction with the Mehrotra Institute at Boston University’s Questrom Business School, the EPPF of South Africa, and GIBS’s Responsible Finance Initiative and Sustainability, Impact and Circular Economy Initiative, to create a new framework for assessing how and where long-term savings can derive the optimal benefits for its members and the South African economy.
Unlocking long-term savings is key to addressing South Africa's critical needs, but impact measurement must evolve to truly serve investors and pension fund members. Current models are too focused on philanthropic and international development funders, limiting their effectiveness. Join us as we explore a new approach, one that balances meaningful impact with sustainable financial returns. Be part of the conversation shaping the future of investment in South Africa!
