Growth of impact investing (in Germany/and the European Union) generally and as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic
The International Family Offices Journal
Vol. 5 - Iss. 1 pp. 6–14
Sep 2020
A current view from Germany, by Peter Brock and Dr Johannes Knorz, on the impact of Covid-19 on impact investing in Germany and other European countries. In their article, they note that: Impact investing is also slowly but surely becoming mainstream in the German-speaking region as financial institutions are pushing the case, but also movements and associations like the Federal (German) Initiative for Impact Investing (Bundesinitiative Impact Investing) are spreading the news further to include new and additional sources of funding, particularly approaching institutional investors, but also private family capital and family offices. The authors include a number of charts and graphs to illustrate the current state of impact investing, a field in which the millennials have a pronounced interest. The wealth of information should be a great resource for all family offices.
