sustainability of a company that it
wishes to invest in or that it already
has invested in and therewith
prove to the regulator the
sustainability of a portfolio
• If a company does not operate
sustainably enough, impact
investors may withdraw their
money and redirect it to more
sustainable companies
• This might cause the capital cost
to increase for companies
