Principles for Impact Investments: Practical guidance for measuring and assessing the life cycle, magnitude, and tradeoffs of impact investments

Do investments in the context of sustainability contribute to a better world?

Prof. Dr. Timo Busch, Professor of Management and Sustainability at the University of Hamburg and member of the Academic Advisory Board, and Eric Prüßner, Senior Researcher at AIR, recently published a whitepaper entitled “Principles for Impact Investments: Practical guidance for measuring and assessing the life cycle, magnitude, and tradeoffs of impact investments”.

The whitepaper developed 18 principles that represent an important step toward coherent and practical guidance for measuring and evaluating impact investments. This should be seen as an ongoing project to stimulate discussion, thought and development, with the overall aim of contributing to further standardization in the field of impact investing.
