Report: Impact Investing Could Entrench Inequality Without Better Monitoring
By Tom Jackson
The current methods for measuring the outcomes of impact investing risk entrenching existing inequalities in access to capital whilst opening the door to “impact washing”, according to a new report.
The report, “No Data, No Deal? Impact Measurement and Capital Flows to Achieve climate-compatible growth”, is released by researchers at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment at the University of Oxford, which equips enterprise to achieve net zero emissions and the sustainable development goals, through world-leading research, teaching and partnerships.
