Creating the Easy Button for Impact Investors: Streamlining Access to Impactful Financial Models

In the realm of innovative financial models, the focus often centers on asset classes rather than the investors' needs. This session aims to shift that focus by activating impact investors with simplified, user-friendly solutions that make impactful investing as seamless as shopping online. Traditional investment portfolios typically include charitable donations, personal loans with modest returns, and higher-return retirement or stock market investments. However, the emerging landscape of alternative finance models offers a chance to reimagine these categories.

In this session, speakers will introduce and discuss three transformative financial products: Investment Cooperatives, Community Notes, and Private Guarantee Programs. These models provide the same liquidity and risk profiles as traditional investments while delivering significant social and environmental impact. Discover how these innovative solutions can streamline access to impactful financial models and empower investors to drive meaningful change with ease.
