Supporting & Developing the Impact Economy
The 5 pillars of a successful impact economy.
A thriving impact economy depends upon five important pillars driving impact: demand for capital, supply of capital, intermediaries, ecosystem enablers and government.
Government
- Governments act as catalysts within the impact investment ecosystem. Through their roles as policymakers, regulators, market builders, and direct participants, they shape policies, create incentives, and set standards that support impact investments and promote sustainable practices across sectors.
Demand for Impact Capital
- This pillar represents businesses and entrepreneurs offering solutions to societal and environmental challenges. These impact-driven entities (which include social enterprises) rely on investment to finance their growth and scale their impact, thereby creating a pipeline for targeted capital and directly generating positive outcomes through their solutions.
Supply of Capital
- The supply side encompasses institutional investors, philanthropies, and private capital providers who allocate funds to impact-driven businesses. These actors—including pension funds, banks, and charitable foundations—provide the financial resources necessary to fuel projects and enterprises that prioritize positive social and environmental outcomes.
Financial Intermediaries
- Financial intermediaries facilitate the flow of impact capital by bridging the supply and demand sides. Private equity funds, stock exchanges, and other financial service providers enable transactions, manage risk, and support the due diligence and reporting needed to sustain impact investing.
Ecosystem Enablers
- Ecosystem enablers strengthen the infrastructure surrounding impact investing. While they may not provide capital directly, enablers—such as financial advisors, academic institutions, and industry networks—promote knowledge-sharing, build expertise, and foster connections across the ecosystem, ultimately enhancing its resilience and scalability.
