“We want a new partnership with investors, businesses and charities. All the best examples of things that are built to last are when they have been built together,” says Lisa Nandy, Secretary of State for Department for Culture, Media and Sport in the foreword to the latest market sizing report from the Impact Investing Institute. It is great to see charities and philanthropy referenced in the report. As Lisa Nandy’s quote suggests, we cannot achieve the full potential for positive, sustainable change in our communities and the wider world without the effective deployment of capital across the full spectrum of capital. Responsible business, ESG, impact investing, social investing and philanthropy all play different and important roles in driving positive change for people and planet. The more these different approaches are understood and supported to thrive, the better able we will be to build a sustainable future together. This is the Impact Investing Institute's second report on the UK’s impact investment market showing £77 billion in total and a striking 10% annual growth rate.

From my time at Social Enterprise UK I remember how clear it became to me the importance of the evidence base and data to inform our work - to identify the scale of the movement, key trends, and what needed to be addressed or built on. The State of Social Enterprise work continues to do so, year on year. The Impact Investing Institute has now released its second market sizing report for UK impact investment in a similar vein, and there's much of interest: - Growth of £19bn or so between 2021 and 2023 - UK representing around 8% of the global market (this report aligns itself to The Global Impact Investing Network approach) - an estimated £77bn assets under management - growing interest from institutional investors (including local authority pension funds) It's also encouraging to see the foreword from the Secretary of State Department for Culture, Media and Sport Lisa Nandy MP - "We want a new partnership with investors, businesses, and charities. All the best examples of things that are built to last are when they have been built together". Here's hoping that heralds more to come. In the meantime, as a board member and supporter, many congrats to the Impact Investing Institute team for this piece of work. https://lnkd.in/emakwfJK #impactinvestment #impactinvesting #socialinvestment #ESG

It is the fastest growing segment and is driven by a fundamental shift in how investors and fund managers view Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors.

The importance of ‘social’ impact investing - hear from Sean Thompson, Founder & Director of our partner cio investment club 🔽 “Having recognised the value of financing positive environmental change, institutional investors must now approach the 'S' of ESG with urgency and move with unprecedented speed. The current situation demands swift action, as neither they nor society can afford to repeat the same decade-long learning curve of the past. Despite their contributions representing a relatively small share of the total impact investing pool, attracting more institutional capital could be a game-changer. It could allow social impact funds to extend their reach, significantly increase economic inclusion, and provide institutional investors with access to high-quality investment opportunities in growth markets. The need for social impact investing has reached a critical point, and institutional investors are uniquely positioned to make a difference. They have the power to shape the future of impact investing. The time to act is now, and those who seize this opportunity have the potential to lead in a space that is likely to become the next frontier in generating alpha.” To discover more about social impact investing with Big Issue Invest please contact Rebecca Moss. #Invest #Investor #SocialImpact #fund #BigIssueInvest

💼 UK Impact Investing Market: Opportunities and Challenges 💼 The UK Impact Investing Market report provides an in-depth analysis of the size, scope, and growth potential of the impact investing sector in the UK. Here are some of the highlights: 🌍The Great Wealth Transfer (estimated £5.5 trillion over the next 30 years) and rising interest from younger generations will fuel impact investing, aligning with net-zero and social equity goals. 💰 UK institutional asset owners (inc. pensions funds, foundations, endowments, and insurance companies) manage only £3.42bn (4.5% of the UK impact investing market, AUM), with 88% of assets handled by investment managers/DFIs, much higher than the global average (68%). There is a huge potential for foundations to think about how they manage their endowments and make the most impact out of them. ⚡ Less than 1% of impact AUM (in the sub-sample) is allocated to businesses majority-owned by marginalised racial/ethnic groups. A major gap in diversity and inclusion! So, what does this mean and how can we help? At NPC (New Philanthropy Capital), we support impact investors by helping you integrate impact across your entire portfolio. With the Great Wealth Transfer and growing demand for sustainability, grant-making trusts and foundations should align investing and grant-making strategies. We work with impact investors and foundations to determine impact allocation strategies, ensuring investments catalyse positive change. We also bring our strong track record of developing Theories of Change for a range of organisations to impact investing at a time when FCA requires ToC for Sustainability Impact label. #ImpactInvesting #Sustainability #WealthTransfer #ToC #GrantMaking #ESG #philanthropy You can access Impact Investing Institute's report here: https://lnkd.in/eWRKG_HA
