A ground-breaking book on the transformative power of

impact investing

This is the first book to chart the catalytic path of this new

industry, explaining how it is and can be a positive disruptive

force. It shows how impact investing is a transformational vehicle

for delivering "blended value" throughout the investment spectrum,

giving a single name to a set of activities previously siloed in

enclaves, revealing how they are linked within what is becoming a

new field of investing. Written by two leaders in the growing field

of impact investing, the book defines this emerging industry for

participants on all sides of the funding equation (investors,

funders and social entrepreneurs).

Filled with illustrative examples of impact investing success

stories

Reveals how the field can expand in order to address the most

critical social and environmental issues of our day

Explores the wide-ranging applications of impact investing as

well as entrepreneurial opportunities

The authors do not take a normative approach to argue how

investors should behave like an investment guide might but show how

entrepreneurial people and institutions are already offering an

integrated alternative.
