The Making Finance Work for Women Podcast

This episode explores the potential of a gender-focused investment strategy and its viability as an entry point into ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investing, specifically through the “S.” We will uncover
strategies for effectively measuring the impact and scope of gender lens investing.

Additionally, Sonja Kelly (Global Vice President, Research & Advocacy, Women's World Banking) and Ivan Chew, CFA (Director of Impact, BrightLight Group) discuss the transformative potential of investments in women's economic empowerment, a significant avenue towards realizing our social investment objectives, which in turn has a discernible influence on environmental and governance goals.
