Visit impact investment summit says AAA
Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA), the alternative investment consultancy, is inviting people who want to make a difference to the world while making money to visit this year's Impact Investing Summit.
- (1888PressRelease) June 24, 2011 - Boston, MA, USA -- As impact investing becomes an increasingly valid option for people who want to make a difference while making money, this year's Impact Investing Summit, is likely to be a popular event. This is according to alternative and ethical investment advocacy organization, Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA), which is urging interested parties to attend.
The summit is running from 20-21 September in Washington and will focus on equipping investors with the information they need to make a profitable decision on where to invest their money. The event's website says it will: "Arm you with the tools and knowledge you need to commit to tomorrow's most profitable impact investments from water and energy to health and housing."
JP Morgan last year stated, "Impact Investing will reveal itself to be one of the most powerful changes within the asset management industry in the years to come." This statement reflects the general consensus that investing in emerging economies now will generate benefits in the future. Not just for the investors, but for the enterprises and small business that receive the funding - and of course the wider communities that share in their upturn in fortunes.
"Individuals and funds alike are increasingly looking towards ethical choices when examining their options for where to invest. If it is possible to help communities in Africa, Asia and Latin America to prosper while generating healthy income, who wouldn't choose this option?" asked AAA's analyst partner Anthony Johnson, who is a major advocate of the impact investment model. He also supports ethical investments such as the opportunities offered in Brazil through firms like Greenwood Management that run plantations of non-native timber sustainably to help reduce deforestation.
AAA realizes the path to finding the right investment option is complicated and complex, so attending this year's summit really is a must for all those interested in a serious foray into the market. The summit organizers hope to equip those attending with guidance on matters including 'what's worth investing in?'. This is important as it will provide information about which investments and impact areas offer the lowest risk and the highest returns.
Representatives from funds including the Shell Foundation, Water.org and the Calvert Foundation will be on hand to give advice and offer expert guidance.
