| Assessment Resource - Leader | IFC/ World Bank |
| Assessment Resource - Purpose | On April 12, 2019, the Operating Principles for Impact Management were launched at the World Bank Group/IMF Spring Meetings in Washington, D.C. The initiative to develop these principles was led by IFC in consultation with leading impact asset managers and asset owners, drawing on their expertise and experience. The Impact Principles provide a framework for investors to ensure that impact considerations are purposefully integrated throughout the investment life cycle. |
| Assessment Resource - Content | By providing greater discipline and transparency in impact investing, IFC and the other Signatories seek to foster increased mobilization of capital for impact. As the number of Signatories continues to grow, these asset managers, asset owners, Multilateral Development Banks and Development Finance Institutions have become a collaborative community, working together to shape the future of impact investing. |
