Such a good interview.. Thank you for sharing!
Interesting! Just came across the term recently, but I currently know of 2 companies that would be a great fit for Impact Investing in and one is actually developing Affordable Housing in California.
am I stupid or are all her answers quite vague?
"Intentionally" vague. Everybody knows you can't make money by investing in affordable housing. That defeats the whole point of investing in real restate. Its a scam.
Just had a look at your portfolio... how is Cocacola or pepsi an Impact Investment???
It's for the data
@@diannh2894 Its for the dividends
It’s not. Her portfolio is diverse. Impact investing is one portion. She also participates in traditional investing.
Interviews like this are primarily going to make impact investing seem like a scam for big portfolios to get more credibility to attract capital. Her housing examples just stated government funded public services, libraries and meals on wheels, what on earth does that have to do with someone being able to afford their house. Disaster.
This is so beautiful, priceless, beatific, heartening, humbling, encouraging, precious, and inspiring! My body's riotously convulsing as I type this!
Stay safe during the Coronavirus!
11swallowedinthesea dude....... That's creepy
It was very difficult for me and my family to feed during the pandemic am so great full to God for letting me come across Mr Carlos @Carlos_1uptrades on Instagram. he thought my forex trading and now am earning massively
see a doctor
Is shorting the VIX also impact investing?
That's shorting the impact.
Shorting the vix is suicidal. You want to buy vix calls for portfolio insurance. The vix goes up when markets face turmoil.
Being from the Yale area and education system ... we would reject her investment
Wenger out
True this definitely was a disaster as an explanation and I don't know if anyone else noticed but out of all the people who were renting houses they had them demographically targeted to be a certain color or a certain culture of living LOL I thought that was pretty messed up and pretty segregated, the example they picked of the ones that were having a hard time paying more in rent was two girls and they had a baby if you go back and look in the video you will see that the couple that is in the example is one white girl and one black girl and they are raising a brown baby, talk about creating dysfunction right there
Did this really need subtitles.
Yes, people who are deaf or hard of hearing have a right to learn about impact investment as well.
First
So her first example of "impact investing" is basically being a landlord, buying up property and collecting rents, while trying to make others believe that they are "doing good". This is a predatory hedge fund buying up physical assets that ordinary people should own, but have been priced out of. hedge funds say.... Let's buy up all the property that poor and the middle class can no longer afford to own and call it "impact investing". Disgusting.
Her jawline
What about it?
I wonder how much money impact investors lose annually
Elijah Rodgers it generates more of a return than “normal” investing.
@@seanrichardson257 depends on how you measure return - if financially: Not really
Impact investing ain't about returns at all. It is growing popular due to failure of donations and grants model.
@@pranavshrestha4953 It is also about financial returns... sure most of the time below-market rate returns but still. Funds like Acumen aim for financial and "social returns" a concept called blended value,
@@nick7102 Yes that is true but in the beginning the donors/ grant providers (investors) hired smart ass fund managers to make sure that their donations were spent more efficiently and they could bring a self sustaining positive change in the world. Even today if you look closely, "true impact investors" don't care about returns, they just wanna make sure that the cause (business) they invest in becomes self sustainable hence the element of profit is required. When they become assured that the business has become self sustainable, they "shift" the funds to another impact enterprise.
She only here because of her gender.
The only reason you are here is because you are a dude.
@Her Tro So are most the white, male CEOs that dominate global corporations.
