Impact Investing at Notre Dame
Impact investing requires investing in companies with corporate social responsibility as an inherent part of their mission. When engaging in impact investing, the impact of the investment on all stakeholders must be considered. In addition, impact investing must take place in a market environment that is competitive and innovative. Impact investing is concerned with creating value for human flourishing.
Our goal is to further the exploration of this field, to consider how Mendoza College of Business faculty are contributing to impact investing teaching and scholarship, and to learn from other examples as we enhance our attention to the topic in our teaching.
