🌍 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁? A recent cross-national study confirms that microfinance institutions (MFIs) do more than foster financial inclusion. When they implement green lending and social impact policies, they also reduce CO₂ emissions, empower women, and strengthen community resilience. 📊 The data speaks volumes: MFIs with sustainability-focused strategies consistently achieve better environmental and social outcomes — especially when backed by strong governance and supportive regulatory environments. This shift — from lender to sustainability catalyst — is not just possible, it’s already happening. 📅 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿?

🌿 Impact Investing: A Smart Risk Management Tool for Private Markets 🔴 It's time to stop viewing impact investing as a concession - and start seeing it as smart, strategist capital allocation. New research from Cornell's SC Johnson College of Business reveals compelling evidence that private-market impact funds - which support companies delivering social and environmental benefits - can help investors reduce risk exposure without sacrificing financial performance. At Investing for Development, this is exactly the type of approach we have been putting into practice. Through our impact strategies, we invest in regions where capital is scarce - but where the impact is tangible and long-term. By aligning investment with financial inclusion, rural development and gender equity, we have seen that impact and risk management can go hand in hand. 🌾 The takeaway: you don't need to sacrifice returns to invest in impact. You can enhance portfolio stability, reduce exposure to systemic risks and support real change in communities that need the most. 👉 Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/d-ejCvrc #ImpactInvesting #PrivateMarkets #RiskManagement #CornellReserach
