Proposed Definitions, Strategies, Disclosures and Templates for Investor Contribution
Impact Frontiers and The Predistribution Initiative (PDI), with the support of Omidyar Network, jointly facilitated an industry consensus-building effort to develop resources that can support investors in measuring, managing, and reporting their positive and negative contributions to impact and systematic risk. Through this “Investor Contribution 2.0” (IC 2.0) project, we invited input and feedback via a public consultation and co-creation process from February 21 through May 30, 2023. This process is now complete, and we will publish the final products as a public resource in late 2023 – the first half of 2024.
The first five products of this project are now available:
- British International Investment (BII) case study illustrating BII’s intended positive contribution in action
- Positive Investor Contribution Claim Template
- Investor Influence White Paper
- Investor Contribution Toolkit for CDFIs and Their Capital Providers
- CDFI Investor Contribution Rating
A white paper with further context and details on the project’s methodology will be published here in 2024. Additionally, another template will be published in 2024: a disclosure template focused on investor contribution through investment structures and governance for PE, PD, and VC, which is primarily focused on potential negative impacts.
