But what is impact finance?
Sustainable finance is a field of finance that focuses on integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into investment decisions. Impact finance is becoming increasingly popular as more and more investors seek to align their investments with their personal values and to combat climate change.
More and more impact investment funds are being created to invest in structures that have a positive social/environmental impact or are in transition.
The Belgian government also supports the development of impact finance by implementing regulations and tax incentives to encourage responsible investments.
The impact finance sector in Belgium covers a wide range of investment areas, such as renewable energy, health, education, poverty reduction, sustainable agriculture, and more.
