Democratising Impact Investing

Over the past 10 years as impact investing has grown in popularity, it has still stubbornly remained focused mainly on HNW investors. Even today there are minimal access points for retail investors and very few retail financial advisers are even aware that it exists as an option for their clients. 

In addition to this many dealer groups and AFSL holders have never been aware of the few options that exist and not had enough pressure from advisers to add investments to their Approved Product List.

Unlocking the trillions of dollars, in retail superannuation and investment, would have the flow on effect of creating deeper impact but also greater advocacy and engagement of major social issues.

We have assessed our investment's impact partners across the 17 SDGs to help match with investor preferences. Most investors would already be very familiar with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

 

For those seeking more information, a summary of each of the 17 goals, please review this booklet and also the indicator list used to by organisations to map and attribute impact.

Additional information explaining the relevance and relationship between the SDGs and investing in the impact required to achieve them can be is available at:
