Schwab Foundation Report - “Beyond Compliance: Embedding Impact through Innovative Finance”
Companies face growing ever increasing scrutiny from customers, regulators and policy makers of the impact that they have on the world. Demonstrating the positive social impact you’re having can be difficult, however, and too much money is wasted on initiatives that don’t deliver real progress.
What if we told you there’s a way for companies to contribute to society in a way that is measurable and reportable – connecting the dots between funding, prosperity, and positive impact that changes people’s lives?
Common Good Marketplace was designed to make these connections, and we are delighted to have collaborated with the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship and the World Economic Forum on the development of a new report to help businesses navigate this challenging landscape.
Offering a practical roadmap for organisations looking to integrate social impact into their corporate engagement strategy, “Beyond Compliance: Embedding Impact through Innovative Finance” explores how companies can harness the power of new finance models, like social impact marketplaces, to find and fund the organisations making a real difference in the world and understand the impact of donations.
We are proud to have been named in this report as a specialist and trusted advisor in innovative finance tools that deliver tangible social outcomes, and we encourage all businesses large and small to join this movement!
