With Melinda French Gates’ recent announcement of a $1B donation in support of women’s rights, gender investing is taking center stage. In a powerful op-ed explaining her vision, Gates underscored the urgency to drive capital to this vital cause – not only because the need is pressing, but because research has shown, time and again, that investing in women benefits everyone.   The imperative has never been more clear – and now, so are the pathways for impact. In a recent piece for ESG Investor, Sandra Osborne Kartt, CFA, Deputy Chief Investment Officer, ImpactAssets Capital Partners outlines how targeted investments can catalyze progress for #genderequality.   Sandra highlights the three essential areas of need in which the patient and flexible capital of impact investors can be most effective at driving gender equality: advancing economic inclusion; delivering products and services that improve lives and outcomes; and increasing representation and voice.   At ImpactAssets, we have long been working to hone actionable strategies for promoting equality for the world’s four billion women and girls. Melinda French Gates’ commitment to gender equality is an inspiration, and we’re proud to support this cause alongside thoughtful leaders like her.   To learn more about ImpactAssets’ approach to drive lasting impact for gender equality, read Sandra’s full article in ESG Investor here: https://lnkd.in/ezVusMYu #impactinvesting #philanthropy
