The 2017 and 5th edition of the African Investing for Impact Barometer (AIFIB) reveals that more than half of the funds examined in sub-Saharan Africa are invested in one or more investing for impact strategies.
The 2017 AIFIB shows that over $400 billion in financial assets have been directed to investing for impact in Southern Africa, East Africa and West Africa as responsible investment in Africa is on the rise.
