First, one needs to bring clarity and discipline to the management of investments and integrate impact considerations with financial objectives, understanding the key elements in the investment process. In other words, investors need to follow the principles of the investment process to ratchet up transparency in fund management.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, uniform standards, which will help compare the efficacy of impact strategies, must be adopted to increase impact investments\u2019 comparability and transparency \u2013 two metrics whose demand has been buoyed by the growth of the impact industry to assess the positive and negative impact of investment decisions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third, regulatory and policy revisions will allow investors to include impact considerations in reporting. To exploit the full potential of the impact investment market, synergies need to be created between development financial institutions and private impact investors.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Investors adopt a plethora of investment strategies to make an impact in private and public markets. Investments whose impact is measurable and visible are mostly those made in private markets, while evidence of a quantifiable impact of individual investors in public markets is limited. However, material capital can be invested in public assets, including green and sustainability bonds. With the passage of time, even public markets have realised the weight of intention and evidence, so they are increasing transparency through impact reports and narrowing the transparency gap between public and private markets.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, to conclude Impact investment will keep on increasing considering growing environmental concerns. However, investors need to analyse the impacts of their investments through detailed analysis and matrices. To avoid investment challenges, project impacts need to be integrated with financial objectives, so that financial institutes and impact investors can collaborate together towards a common agenda.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Impact investment has gained traction amid the COVID-19 pandemic, as a slew of social challenges forced institutions to change the way they invest.
