Data Driven: A Performance Analysis for the Impact Investing Industry The first data report of the IRIS initiative presents early findings from 2,394 organizations – including 1,931 microfinance institutions and 463 mission-driven organizations – that work with leading impact investment intermediaries. This report signals a new level of sophistication for the impact investing industry by providing an early glimpse into industry characteristics and the performance of organizations receiving and seeking impact investment capital. In addition to presenting early aggregated performance data, this report’s objective is to drive widespread adoption of IRIS and to encourage impact investors, funds, and mission-driven organizations to strengthen future market intelligence by voluntarily contributing data for analysis through IRIS data collection partners. As more social, environmental, and financial performance data is collected by the IRIS initiative, the resulting analysis will help the impact investing community make better informed decisions and facilitate more effective use of impact investment capital.
