Centuries of systemic racism have led to deep economic inequities, and investors increasingly recognize the need to advance racial equity through their practices and portfolios. In this discussion – which launches the prototype IRIS+ Racial Equity theme – the PolicyLink, CapEQ, and GIIN teams will share a powerful model for how investors can and must reconsider their decision-making power, their perceptions of risk, and how to promote equitable outcomes in their work. In this interactive session, participants will have the opportunity to share their perspectives and help us shape the ongoing development of the IRIS+ Racial Equity theme.
