Impact Investing Masterclass – Deck for Future VC 2021Dama Sathianathan
Here's my deck all about impact investing used in the Future VC Masterclass, providing new talent breaking into VC with an overview of what impact investing is and how it applies to the venture capital industry.
ESG investing leads to sustainability and ethical business practices but does ESG investing work when you want to make money? While this way to invest is a positive social force, does ESG investing work to increase your investment assets? Or is it a way to give to charitable causes while being disguised as a way to invest? Will you make money investing this way or would you do better simply giving your money to a cause that you support?

De dwingende uitdaging waarvoor wij staan op het gebied van milieu is, om met zijn allen de beweging in gang te zetten om de gemiddelde opwarming van de aarde tot 1,5 graden te beperken. Sommige belanghebbenden, gouvernementele organisaties en banken, vragen regelmatig om verbetering en het aanscherpen van de Europese wetgeving met betrekking tot het klimaat. De EU zou tegen 2050 een totale reductie van de binnenlandse emissies van 80% moeten realiseren. Door een eenduidig stappenplan te borgen, is een concrete stap naar verduurzamen. Denk daarbij aan de interne- en externe belanghebbenden te betrekken voor de implementatie van initiatieven om CO2-emissies te verminderen, of een stap verder zou zijn, om de emissies te compenseren. De Routekaart beschrijft aan de hand van analyses, en sector specifieke KPI’s, modellen hoe dit beleid goed zou kunnen worden geborgd in een Environmental Socio-Economic Governance beleid.

ESG-ROADMAP
With the effects of climate change already upon us, the need to cut global greenhouse gas emissions is nothing less than urgent. It’s a daunting challenge, but the technologies and strategies to meet it exist today. A small set of ESG policies, designed and implemented well, can put us on the path to a low carbon future. ESG Key Performance Indicators are complex, so they must be sector specific, focused and cost-effective. One-size-fits-all approaches simply won’t get the job done. Sustainability managers need a clear, comprehensive resource that outlines the ESG policies that will have the biggest impact on our climate future, and describes how to implement these policies well within their own organisations.
We don’t need to wait for new technologies or strategies to create a low carbon future—and we can’t afford to. ESG-ROADMAP gives professionals the tools they need to select, design, and implement the policies that can put us on the path to a livable climate future.
The Environmental Social Governance challenges e.g: on regulatory and reputational risks, market scandals and new market opportunities makes ESG information a data source of growing importance. With ESG in company seminars, round table discussions, scholarships and online association programs, we leave no one behind. Sign up today.

Research paper by Dom Thurbon, summarising:
- State of the CSR market in Australia and New Zealand
- The gap between strategy and measurement of corporate community investments
- 7 strategic questions practitioners should ask when selecting community investment
Includes Appendix of raw survey data
Today’s corporations, faced with the extraordinary challenges of global climate change, water scarcity and workplace inequality, are at a crossroads. They can take proactive steps to adapt to pressing environmental and social issues – the two core categories of “sustainability” – or they can risk being left behind.
Sustainability is a critical business issue that all companies must focus on. Wall Street research, academic papers, corporate reports and trends from major investors all underscore the same message: companies that adopt sustainable practices deliver superior financial results and can face the future with more resilience.
Corporate boards must take a leading role in championing sustainability across the entire business enterprise. More than executives and other employees, members of corporate boards are responsible for ensuring long-term shareholder success and overall value creation. Directors have a duty and a mandate to promote sustainability priorities in corporate strategy, risk management and performance in order to meet this fiduciary responsibility.
Yet, while there has been a measurable uptick in director engagement on sustainability issues, it is still largely the exception rather than the rule among most companies. A 2014 Ceres analysis of 600 of the largest publicly traded U.S. companies found that only 32 percent oversee sustainability at the board level. Additionally, except in the case of a few leading companies, it is often unclear whether board sustainability oversight is achieving meaningful performance improvements.
Building on interviews conducted with dozens of corporate directors, senior corporate leaders and governance experts, this report identifies key strategies for effective board engagement that can produce tangible environmental and social impacts. Specifically, the report recommends two inter-related approaches for weaving sustainability more deeply across board functions: 1) Integrating sustainability into board governance systems, and 2) Integrating sustainability into board actions. By combining robust systems and meaningful actions, boards will have a far better chance of achieving substantive performance improvements.
ESG Roadmap: Observations and practical advice for boards, corporate secretar...Mike Wallace
Company governance practices and failures have long been an important factor in investor
analysis of a firm’s short-term and long-term value. Over the last several decades—with an
acceleration in the last five years—the relevance to investors of a company’s environmental and
social impacts stemming from its practices, policies and products has increased substantially.
Effective oversight and management by boards, corporate secretaries and sustainability teams
of so-called “ESG” (environmental, social and governance) issues are increasingly important to
preserving and creating shareholder value. Driven by client demand, reputational risk
management and a supportive body of financial research, many investors are demanding that
companies think more broadly about their ESG impacts, take corrective action (if required) and
disclose their ESG-related efforts. In this brief, we will examine the drivers of the growth in
ESG-related investing and engagement, explore ESG’s impact on financial products and
strategies and suggest practical advice to assist boards, corporate secretaries and sustainability
teams.

Who will be in
the room?
The conference is designed to bring
together large companies and financial
institutions. Attending will be 150 senior
professionals from large corporations
who work in corporate responsibility and
sustainability, along with leading financial
institutions and research experts. We’re
actively restricting the number of service
providers to ensure a minimum of 80%
of attendees are corporate practitioners
to ensure the conference delivers
maximum value.
Is it just another talking
shop? Will there be
outcomes?
The conference has been specifically
designed to focus on how companies
can map, and investors can understand,
sustainability measurement in detail.
By bringing together an intimate group
of corporate practitioners and finance
professionals, the conference provides
a strong platform for debate. The forum
will provide, in clear and simple terms,
valuable insight that can be implemented
from the first day back in the office.
Why will this event
be different from
others?
Innovation Forum has a clear philosophy
– focused events, senior participants
and candid dialogue following Chatham
House rules. By bringing together highly
experienced practitioners around such a
focused topic, we are able to get to the
core of the challenges and opportunities
for companies in this space. The agenda
is designed to be interactive and engaging
so the issues discussed are those that
matter to you and your peers.

How UK business can contribute to managing
“natural wealth” sustainably
We will ask Nick Barter to make some comments about what
the natural capital committee and the UK’s Department for
Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) have been doing to
encourage organisations to account better for the impacts they
have on the natural environment.
Nick Barter, deputy director, natural capital committee
secretariat,DEFRA
10.00 Interactive discussion panel:
The sustainable value conundrum – do we really
understand the use potential and value of what
we measure today?
From environmental profit and loss accounting, to accounting
for sustainability, to social and economic impact assessments,
measurements with extrapolations to demonstrate value –
positive and negative – have grown exponentially in recent years.
Which of these are compelling to leading commentators and
experts, particularly given, as one expert puts it “there’s a 30%
margin of error on measuring a tonne of carbon”?
Some of the questions for debate:
• Can we connect investors and corporations through a
single sustainability language or measurement – and is this
monetary, taking into account natural/social capital valuation?
• What are we measuring natural and social capital for? What
are the safeguards needed to ensure it’s not just about selling
off nature but delivering overall long term value for all, linking
investors and companies?
• How should we standardise the measurement language?

Sectoral approaches to measuring and
valuing sustainable and responsible business –
Tullow Oil and Marks & Spencer
A consistent challenge Tullow Oil faces is impact measurement.
Directly linking social investments to factors that generate
business value has emerged as a new model. We will ask Sandy
Stash to talk about how Tullow links the economic, societal
and business impacts of projects. She will also address how the
company decides which type of projects are most likely to create
shared value. A key area she will address is whether specific
selection criteria can be used to improve return on investment.
Sandy Stash, group vice president, safety, sustainability and
external affairs, TullowOil
Marks & Spencer reported a net benefit of £145m for its Plan A
sustainability programme in 2013/14. That takes the cumulative
total to £465m since 2007. The company calculates these
numbers by looking at Plan A in granular detail, breaking it
down to every level of activity it does under the Plan A banner
and calculating the costs and the financial benefits. Mike Barry
will explore the practical challenges of setting goals both on an
issue specific as well as corporate level. He’ll discuss measuring
progress, capturing business value and developing common goals
with other businesses.
Mike Barry, director, Plan A, Marks&Spencer
Key questions for the speakers will include:
• What do they regard as key measures which represent value
and which are simply areas for evaluation?
• What sort of resources need to be applied to gain useful results
– and over what timescale?
• How do they use standardised and industry-specific tools and
measurements together?
• Communicating value internally and externally: how can
results be best used for effective value communication?

Green Bonds, what are the opportunities for
financing measureable corporate sustainability
strategy?
The green bond market increasing been growing, in 2014 with
$36.6bn issued; triple the amount issued in 2013. Green Bonds
are a highly relevant topic which clearly links the corporate and
investor worlds. Julia will talk about the green bonds index S&P
have created, and will be joined by Justine from Climate Bonds
Initiative, who will give us some of her experience working with
industry experts to help define “what is green” with the aim to
help investors prioritise climate and green bonds with confidence.

2.30 Case studies:
How big business measures and values
sustainability – Rio Tinto, Walgreens Boots
Alliance and Interserve
For many companies, a challenge for different internal functions
is communicating effectively with each other. There is a lack
of common language on measuring and valuing business
sustainability across operations, finance, communications, and
others. Simon Morris from mining company Rio Tinto will reflect
on this – and how an extractives sector business can develop
credible value for sustainability so that it becomes a central
business metric.
Simon Morris, chief adviser, external affairs, RioTinto
Richard Ellis from Walgreens Boots Alliance will discuss
how financial data relating to corporate responsibility and
sustainability takes it from being a slipstream to a mainstream
activity. Giving the business in general, and the finance function
in particular, access to non-financial data helps understanding
across the business. We will ask Richard to explain how data
capture is embedded into all elements of the WBA business
and how training has enabled a consistent approach in
collecting information. We will examine the importance
of external verification and how better information can
improve decision-making.
Richard Ellis, vice president, corporate social responsibility,
WalgreensBootsAlliance
Construction and support services multinational company
Interserve has been looking at geo spatial tools to provide
greater insight into its impacts. The company’s initial focus has
been on the mapping of natural capital and social value impacts.
We will ask Mat Roberts how Interserve’s work on greater spatial
reporting has enabled the creation of business and client value
from understanding the spatial relationships embedded in
corporate data. Interserve is “mapping” both its business impacts
and public data sets to see its impact in context. We will ask Mat
to explain what this means.

Is there any empirical evidence that
portfolios of sustainable companies have
overall better returns?
Studies from Harvard and London Business School academics say
that sustainable companies can perform better. Critics say these
studies simply cherry pick companies and do not account for
enough variables. This session will analysis how current work in
this area is assessed, and whether this aligns with the techniques
others have been using or developing.
We will ask the crucial question: is human capital accounting
in a fit state to be any use to investors?

The latest thinking on putting value
on climate change
To open the day, leading business finance expert Howard
Covington will assess the trends in how climate change is valued
and what this means for investors and business.
Howard Covington, founder, NewStarAssetManagement
10.00
Do campaigns by NGOs have too much influence
on the sustainability issues companies tackle?
Some investors and companies believe that NGO campaigning
can push companies in the wrong direction on material issues for
their business. In this session we will discuss whether this is the
case, and how companies should value reputational capital versus
tackling issues more material to shareholders.
Rachel Wilshaw, ethical trade manager, private sector team,

11.00 Networking break
11.30 Financing case study:
How are development banks measuring
and driving sustainable outcomes?
Depending on the proportion of lending to different sectors and
regions, the natural capital risk exposure of a financial institution
can differ significantly. For example, in Brazil the financial system
is significantly exposed to natural capital risk because the banks
and pension funds are heavily reliant on Brazil’s natural capital
asset base.
Investors and credit analysts need better data and tools to
integrate natural capital risks into investment and financing
analysis in order to protect returns in the future. With the right
tools and analysis, however, capital can be directed towards
best-in-class companies which better manage their
environmental impacts.
In this moderated session, two senior representatives from the
European Bank for Reconstruction and Development will give
their perspective from inside a international finance institution
on sustainability measurement. They will present EBRD's
environmental and social policy, show how the bank measures
the impacts of projects and operations and ask how IFIs can make
a difference in measuring and promoting sustainability.
Simone Dettling from GiZ will then analyse the challenges for
development banks in quantifying emerging market risks.

1.45 What investors want to hear…
Many people claim to know “what investors want to hear”.
Few people actually ask them directly.
In this session, an experienced investor relations director and a
research editor will challenge an investment analyst on what
metrics are really used in sustainability valuation of companies.
A short overview of the various research projects globally
on investor-focussed metrics will be followed by practical
exploration of which metrics really matter to investors –
and should receive more corporate focus – and indentifying
those which can be deprioritised.

3.15 …and how investors want to hear it
The strongest message in the world will only have an impact
if it reaches its intended audience. Drawing on the real-life
communications experiences of companies, analysts and
investors will explain in this session how companies can take
their message to investors and what reception they should
expect. We will find out how interested investors can be
identified, targeted and reached using reports, new media
and direct meetings.
The vast majority of companies, analysts and investors favour
direct communications – such as webinars, face-to-face meetings
or conferences – over questionnaires and surveys and yet the
latter persist. This session will explain how to resolve this
situation.

4.30 Sustainable valuation showcase:
How carbon and climate change information
can be used in stock valuation and investment
What happens to all of the carbon and climate change related
information that companies provide to research firms? Is it ever
used by investors? If so, how?
In this session, recent research will be presented by the authors
and then interrogated by the investors that actually use the
research. In turn, the audience will be given the opportunity to
ask the investors how they use data, how they use analysis and
how they use contextual information on climate change to
make investment decisions.
