Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
Impact Investing
Antony Bugg-Levine & Jed Emerson · 2011
85/100
👍 Worth It
This is as close to a founding text as impact investing has — written by the two people most responsible for defining the field and coining its language. It's aimed at investors and professionals rather than casual readers, and some of the market data has aged since 2011, but the authority and clarity here are hard to beat.
