Financing the SDGs - Investment Solution Workshop
Monday 23rd March 2020, 12pm – 2pm
Scotland House, 58 Victoria Embankment, Temple, London, EC4Y 0DS
This private workshop in London on Monday 23rd March 2020 that will help to shape the development of a new ethical investment solution.
The session is an important milestone within a pioneering 2-year programme of collaboration between UNDP and Scottish Government that is seeking to develop a financial instrument to allow global financial institutions to generate market rate financial returns at the same time as delivering additional positive social / environmental impact. The financial instrument to be discussed at the workshop is a PE fund of funds platform as this emerged as the preferred solution from 80+ interviews conducted with senior practitioners by our project partner RJ Fleming & Co.
The interviews offer a unique insight from global investment institutions into their appetite for ethical investing, views on what is driving the market and the challenges they face in deploying finance to the SDGs. The findings will be launched in a report that coincides with the workshop.
This session forms part of our “Path to COP26” integrated year-long campaign
