New Strategies for Impact Investing across All Asset Classes Bridget
The Closed Loop Fund is a $100 million social impact fund that provides loans to municipalities and private companies to increase recycling rates across the United States. The fund aims to unlock $500 million total by investing in projects like new recycling carts, processing facilities, and remanufacturing plants. The loans are structured to be repaid over 7 years on average from the landfill cost savings and commodity revenues generated by higher recycling rates. This allows the capital to be reinvested in other communities. The goal is for all principal and interest to be returned to investors within 10 years while also increasing recycling of $11 billion worth of materials currently landfilled annually.

The document discusses the FTC's Green Guides, which were revised in 2010 and 2012 to regulate environmental marketing claims. The guides address general environmental claims, seals and certifications, new terms, and clarifications of existing terms. As a case study, the document discusses gDiapers, which claimed to be "green" but did not adequately qualify or substantiate the claim. Finally, the document provides examples of specific claims addressed by the guides, such as compostable, degradable, free-of, non-toxic, and recycled content claims.

Guide responsible corporate_engagement_climate_policy
This document provides guidelines for responsible corporate engagement in climate policy debates. It outlines five core elements of responsible engagement: legitimacy, opportunity, consistency, accountability, and transparency. It also recommends three actions companies can take to engage responsibly: identify policy implications and influences; align words and actions with climate ambitions; and report on policy positions, influences, and outcomes. The guidelines aim to help businesses constructively inform climate policies through transparent and accountable advocacy.
[Slidecast] Modeling the Shared Value of Industry Collaboration
In this session, John O'Connor, VP Sustainability Research, Gaia Metrics (formerly, World Bank, IMF) suggests a model for applying models typically used to value "own account intangibles" like capitalized R&D and brand equity to industry or shared intangibles, such as pre-competition collaboration and supply chain information systems. Case studies from diverse industries (computers & electronics, pharmaceuticals, textiles & apparel, mining, and alcoholic beverages) will be used to show how shared or industry wide intangibles can play a significant role in shareholder value, in some cases exceeding the contribution of the company's purchased or own account intangibles.
These case studies will be used to propose a tentative typology for how businesses seem to use industry intangibles to maximize shareholder value. Topics for discussion include how businesses seem to use industry intangibles to maximize shareholder value, how examples presented might apply to other industries, and how the value of industry collaboration might be connected to income and expense data, to support return on investment metrics.

Traditional measures of return on investment (ROI) for corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs focus on revenue generation and cost reduction. However, CSR can provide broader business benefits through risk management, employee engagement, regulatory benefits, supply chain security, brand equity, consumer benefit, and investor attractiveness. An embedded approach to CSR that empowers employees and questions tradition is more likely to produce unexpected positive outcomes beyond direct financial metrics.
