- Effective impact investing requires rigorous impact measurement.
- Many frameworks for measurement exist, but the Impact Management Project (IMP) created a comprehensive and intuitive model that can be applied to institutional portfolios invested across asset classes and impact objectives.
- This paper describes GEM’s process and presents case studies that seek to demonstrate the framework’s potential to catalyze a paradigm shift in the way endowments, foundations, family offices, and other institutional investors integrate impact and investment objectives.
