1:01:54

Modern media is both wonderful and scary. It represents both the best of what people have to offer and the worst.

Real estate as an asset class has had an absolutely remarkably run since the 1980’s when we entered a several-decade period of economic prosperity, stable inflation, and declining interest rates. Add to that, more than a decade of quantitative easing that continued to ensure cheap financing was available for consumers and homebuyers alike. But as w…

Climate change is widely recognized as an existential threat to humanity. Chief among the contributors to climate change is our food systems.

2y ago13:16

13:16

Gender lens investing is a field that is far more robust and complex than most people realize. Often gender considerations are reduced to a check-box exercise where investors count the number of women being served, women-led businesses being financed, or women sitting on boards.

43 - Putting humanity back into Economics 11:40

2y ago11:40

11:40

For all the good that impact investors claim to be doing, it behooves us to consider what harm we might be causing in the process and whether, ultimately, we're doing more damage than good. After all, impact investing is still investing. It exists within the current framework of free-market Capitalism. And as the deep fractures in that system have …

1:09:34

As much as investing for both purpose and profit is in vogue these days, there's still a wide gap between the number of people talking about impact investing and those doing it.
