Impact investments aim to have a beneficial, measurable social and environmental impact as well as a financial return. The expanding influence of the investment industry provides financing to tackle the world's greatest issues, such as sustainable agriculture, renewable energy, conservation, finance, and economic and accessible basic needs such as housing, healthcare, and education. Impact investing challenges deep-rooted beliefs that environmental and social issues should be handled solely through charity donations, and that market investments should be focused on maximizing financial returns. The Global Impact Investing Network reported that more than 88% of impact investors said their contributions met or surpassed their goals.
