The future of investing is impact investinG
The U.S. Impact Investing Alliance advocates for shared prosperity, accelerated by investments in robust pathways for economic mobility and opportunity. Community development financial institutions (CDFIs) are essential to enabling those investments. They are the financial lifeblood of so many U.S. communities, giving the economy a competitive edge and helping so many fulfill their own American dream.
Shared prosperity is a shared responsibility.
In recent years, the United States benefited from a robust macroeconomic recovery from the COVID-19 and related crises, particularly compared to its global peers. Yet, despite record employment and historic investments across infrastructure and industry, many people across the country feel that the American dream is increasingly out of reach.
This is a moment that demands more from us as advocates and investors for a sustainable, equitable economy for all.

The results of the U.S. 2024 elections are a shock to the system – not just to our political system, but also in how our economy operates and our society functions. While the full implications of this moment will take time to understand, there can be no doubt that the communities across the country facing economic, social and environmental hardships need our support more than ever. The private sector must rise to the occasion – not just investors and financial institutions, but also businesses, philanthropies, nonprofits and other civil society organizations.
