★7/24 “The Future of Engagement Based on Impact Information ~Utilization of Reporting Codes~” Roundtable Discussion
How should you report the impact of your investments? The voice is increasing. To celebrate the release of the Japanese translation of the Impact Performance Reporting Norms, we will be holding an event focusing on the opportunities and challenges of engagement based on impact information between asset managers and asset owners who make impact investments!

💡 The Impact Performance Reporting Norms set out common expectations for the reporting of impact outcomes, primarily by venture capitalists. (The Code was developed through discussions with more than 350 asset managers, asset owners, fund allocators, consultants, and assurance and verification agencies.)
🍅 Impact Frontiers, a nonprofit organization specializing in impact measurement and management, is helping report authors, users, and third-party reviewers implement and leverage the code during the implementation phase from mid-2024 to mid-2026.
💎 In Japan, we are conducting a one-year pilot program in collaboration with the VC Subcommittee of the Declaration on Impact-Oriented Finance.
