  • Abstract:
  • Impact investing is a burgeoning field in finance that seeks to provide both monetary gains and measurable social or environmental advantages. This essay looks at the two objectives of impact investing and emphasises how hard it is to mix social good with financial gain. By examining case studies and actual data, we compare the performance of impact investments to standard investments while accounting for sustainability, risk, and return. The paper covers the frameworks and measurements used to evaluate social impact, the function of market and regulatory pressures, and the tactics impact investors use to fulfil their dual objectives. Our research indicates that impact investments are a strong substitute for traditional investment strategies because, despite potential trade-offs, they frequently link financial success with favourable societal results. The study highlights the potential of impact investing to significantly alter financial markets as well as larger social contexts by identifying future trends and best practices.
