At the GSG Virtual Impact Summit 2020, the GSG hosted an FMO sponsored workshop: ‘Pensions for Purpose’, where 10 leaders from the field shared their experiences, and gave advice to those pension funds looking to embark on investing pensions for impact. It was an inspiring and thought provoking discussion where many commonly held assumptions were broken down.

During this workshop, participants discussed the entire investment cycle, from articulating investment beliefs to allocations and impact measurement. This session was particularly important given that the SDG financing gap has increased due to Covid19, especially in emerging markets. This report provides a concise summary of that rich discussion, structured according to the often-cited barriers for pension funds investing for impact.
