Impact Investing
Impact investing is a long-term investment approach that enables investors to achieve competitive financial returns while integrating measurable economic, environmental and social goals.
Corporate Social Responsibility
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) integrates the economic, social and environmental impact that business has on people, places, and the planet. CSR should be integral to core business objectives and strategies.
Measuring Social Outcomes
Investors use standardized metrics to evaluate and manage their social and environmental performance.
Why Alpha Impact Advisors?
Alpha Impact Advisors offers clients a specialized approach to impact investing, with expertise in both fixed income investing and social impact research and measurement. With over 20 years of experience in impact investing, Barbara VanScoy is uniquely qualified to analyze portfolios and strategies and recommend ways to optimize financial and social returns. She has extensive expertise in analyzing investments across a holistic set of impact factors beyond traditional risk and return measures which can mitigate risk, enhance security selection, and lower portfolio volatility, aiding in the risk-adjusted profile of portfolios.
Impact investing demands sustainable, effective solutions for social change. Responsible investing encourages a longer term approach to value creation. Financial data is no longer sufficient to fully assess an investment. It is necessary to identify and consider non-financial qualitative criteria to determine success. ESG factors into the decision-making process.
Alpha Impact Advisors utilizes financial innovation that is scalable and replicable to produce investment solutions that generate an appropriate risk-adjusted return while driving social and economic change for people and places underserved by traditional capital markets.
Alpha Impact Advisors is a woman-owned small business.
