Sustainable Investment Africa的动态

In the spirit of #flashbackfriday, the Innovest Team is flashing back to one of our favourite panel discussions this year at the annual ESG and Sustainability Conference. Our Africa Lead, Bakang Tshepo Moetse had the honour of facilitating a conversation titled “Scaling Impact Investments in Africa” between key players within the impact investing ecosystem from the DEG, Phatisa, Acre Impact Capital, Discala Holdings and Kendal:IP. After kicking off on a positive note by expressing a shared optimism about the abundant opportunity to leverage investment capital for the creation of impact at scale in Africa, the panellists identified key challenges impeding Africa’s ability to scale its impact investment sector. As highlighted in this clip, the conversation came to an encouraging end by highlighting key strategies that can be employed to achieve the desired level of growth in the sector, specifically naming innovative finance instruments technical assistance, impact measurement and collaboration as critical. A final golden nugget the panellists jointly championed was the fact that within all partnerships established in support of scaling impact investments, Africa needs the latitude to define its sustainable development agenda in a manner that serves African people and preserves the inherently African value system of Ubuntu. Our question for you this Friday: What are your thoughts on how Africa can accelerate the growth of the Impact Investing sector to achieve positive social and environmental at scale? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.

In day 2 of the ESG Africa Conference. One thing for sure is that Africa really gets impact but global markets are positioned to support the impact investment opportunities present in Africa. At Paragon Impact we excited to be working with our partners at Alexforbes to play our part in making this opportunity more obvious, shifting ESG from a risk focus that completely misses the opportunities in Africa, to expanding that view to impact, which brings those opportunities to life in a real way. #impact #sdgs

Emerging markets are a powerhouse in the global impact investment landscape, and Sub-Saharan Africa represents a significant 18% of total assets under management. However, there is room for growth in healthcare. The low penetration of impact investment in healthcare, as well as the fast growth predicted in the market over the next 10 years, signals a major opportunity for bold investors.
