In doing so, they must evaluate the major environmental, human, and social impacts that investments bring on both the risk and opportunity sides. More value for VC funds: A comprehensive “responsible investing” strategy strengthens brand, reputation, market positioning and client relationships. At the same time, it can reduce costs and risks, thanks to the avoidance of supply chain issues, product recalls, potential regulatory violations, accidents, and employee turnover. All of this helps funds acquire talents and achieve better financial results. More value for people and planet: Fund investors want transparency and traceability when it comes to sustainability. So far, venture capital funds have lagged other asset classes in their sustainability communication. Due to new EU rules, fund managers must publish whether and how they minimize risks and create a measurable impact for people and planet.
