impact assessment

Learn how to conduct an impact assessment, measure social impact, and optimise your organisation’s effectiveness with proven strategies and insights.

Our proprietary impact assessment methodology, the Investment Impact Index™ was developed to determine the impact and return on investment across a range of investment structures and development themes. Our methodology determines and analyses impact across the impact value chain, validating the value created and change facilitated through investment and development programmes. The impact assessment approach incorporates a range of global standards for impact management and measurement as well as monitoring and evaluation methodologies and approaches.

Impact and return on investment is determined across stakeholder dimensions and development portfolios. Our approach measures both the depth, reach and duration of impact, and the contribution of the investor and investees to impact. We validate impact results and we analyse impact data against investment and development objectives and targets.
