Using Capitalism for Everyone's Benefit

Business and social impact advocates come together to help reshape solutions for the biggest issues facing the world today.

Most people realize that we're living in a time of incredible economic opportunity. More wealth is being created today than in any other time in human history. That’s the miracle of modern capitalism and voluntary exchange.

It’s vitally important, however, to ensure that economic opportunity exists for everyone -- not merely society’s leaders. When inequality becomes both severe and entrenched, it limits economic mobility, lowers social cohesion and creates political instability.

So how do we reap the benefits of capitalism while ensuring that everyone has access to opportunity? It’s a difficult question without an easy solution -- but one of the most promising approaches is social investing.

OUR CHOICES TODAY BUILD THE WORLD WE’LL INHERIT TOMORROW

Impact investing is a way of thinking about capitalism and business that better reflects where we are in the human journey, the state of our world today, and the innate potential of business to make a positive impact on the world. Conscious businesses are galvanized by higher purposes that serve, align, and integrate the interests of all their major stakeholders.
