GIINsight Series Insight Reports Launched

Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) announced the release of its first two 2023 GIINsight briefs which offer insights on impact investor characteristics, impact investing activity, allocation, and performance.

Highlights include:

  • Investors put 17% of their assets in energy, 13% in financial services, 9% in healthcare — and 61% of investors allocate at least a portion of their assets to food and agriculture.
  • Almost all investors in the sample (96%) target at least one UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), most commonly decent work and economic growth (SDG 8; 80% of investors), climate action (SDG 13; 74%) and gender equality (SDG 5; 71%).
  • Among the sample of repeat respondents, investors grew their allocations to housing at a CAGR of 44% over a five-year period, the fastest-growing sector for impact AUM followed by information & communication technologies at a growth rate of 30%.

 

AGC is thrilled to have contributed to this series of research which provides a comprehensive overview of the impact investing industry based on data from 308 impact investors globally. This series of briefs aims to address a knowledge gap in impact investing activity and the financial performance of impact investments.
