Ik
dacht dat standaard investeringsinstrumenten cruciaal waren in de
versnelling van impact
investing. 'If
it looks enough like an investment product, it probably is'. Ik dacht dat omdat
het structureren van microkrediet in venture
capital & private equitydebt funds
'de' succesfactor was
voor wat nu 'inclusive
finance' heet en een sector is met > 116 miljard US$ AuM.

IMPACT
METRICS
Ik
dacht dat impact metrics
de doorslag zouden geven. Dat inzicht in het niet
financieel rendement van investeringen door
mature
breed toegepaste Integrated
Reporting Investment Standards (IRIS
van theGIIN,
the Global Impact
Investing Network) de
impact return on
invest- ment transparant
zou maken aangevuld door het Global
Impact Investing Rating System GIIRS
ook een initiatief gesteund door theGIIN.
Dat
we dan een onontkenbare waarheid onder ogen zouden zien over de
opbrengst van onze investeringen in de economie. Ik heb een Sell
Framework om
stranded
assets te tonen van niet
duurzame markten zoals Alcohol,
Gokken, Tabak, Porno, Wapens, FossilFuel etc.
Een groeiend universum van direct & indirect schadelijke
diensten & producten. 
Als
de Impact Transitie de ''Duurzaame'' & ''Groene Transitie'' volgt
rolt daar een simpel stappenplan uit:
1:
Ontkoppelen Groei & Negatieve Impact;
→ 2: Verminderen
Negatieve Impact; → 3: Vergroten Positieve Impact;
→ 4:
De Onderneming als Maatschappelijke Oplossingen Aanbieder ''New
Capitalism'1'.
STAP
1 :
Ontkoppelen
dwz groeien zonder de negatieve impact ('voet-afdruk') te vergroten;
dus groeien zonder meer grondstoffen zoals energie, (zoet) water,
mineralen etc te gebruiken, minder uitstoot te creëren;
minder (rest) afval te produceren
door bijv. craddle to craddle & circulair te werken zowel voor
producten als diensten (renoveren van oudere modellen voor nieuwe
markten), voor het human resource management om uitstroom te beperken
& instroom te faciliteren, governance & compliance te
optimaliseren naar ''de geest'' en de intentie en niet ''de letter'',
de kosten van biets niet af te trekken van benoidigde investeringen,
maar ook bijvoorbeeld het bonusbeleid binnen de perken te houden.
STAP
1 is een bedrijfseconomisch
inteligente strategie : meer
produceren tegen minder kosten, intern & extern, en het begin van
een nieuwe bedrijfscultuur gericht op minder negatieve impact.
STAP
2 : Negatieve Impact
voor People & Planet terugdringen van
de kernactiviteiten en het bedrijfsmodel;dus
de revenues
berekenen van activiteiten met negatieve impact, desinvesteren &
investeren in kernactiviteiten en bedrijfsmodellen met positieve
impact.
De
vader van
People Planet Profit John
Elkington benadrukt
dat
niet technologische ontwikkeling maar nieuwe businessmodellen de
succesfactor zullen zijn voor de volgende generatie ondernemingen. We
zien daar al veel voorbeelden van: ondernemingen zonder goederen die
slechts diensten aanbieden zoals Facebook
& Twitter, Über
& AirBNB, Alibaba, Zalando, Takeaway.com.... maar
ook fintechs Lendahand,
Oneplanetcrowd en duurzaaminvesteren.nl
Is
dat eigenlijk wel nieuw ?
Doen banken die meer geld uitlenen dan ze
hebben niet hetzelfde?
Op
basis van Elkingtons rapport voor de British Sustainable Development
Council Breakthrough Business Models uit 2016 maakte ik een snelle inventarisatie van 'nieuwe'
businessmodellen met positieve impact karakteristieken voor People & Planet
zoals in de deel & circulaire economie, maar ook the Base if the Pyramid (Pralahad) als nieuwe doelgroep voor multinationals (Appendix 1 pag. 7-10, zie onderaan).
Voor
Sociale
Cohesie,
de ontevreden burgers in ontwikkelde markten, mensen die hun werk kwijt raakten in de crisis, jeugdige werkelozen en
'underserved people' is ook inclusief
werk
belangrijk met
gelijke betaling & carrière
perspectief voor vrouwen, minderheden, jongeren zonder werkervaring,
50+ers, mensen in om- en bijscholings-trajecten, met afstand tot de
arbeidmarkt, met een kort of 'ouder' werkverleden, her-instromers,
zij-instromers, nieuwkomers & vluchtelingen, met lichamelijke,
verstandelijke, geestelijke handicaps etc. Kortom te integreren van de megatrends vergrijzing,
overbevolking & migratie: werknemers,
klanten, investeerders.
STAP
2 is
een bedrijfseconomisch
intelligente strategie
gericht op lange(re)
termijn: groeikansen
door gerichte investeringen, kostenbesparing
en afbouwen van stranded
assets in niet duurzame activiteiten, uit concurrentie
overwegingen & op basis van
nieuwe businessmodellen.
Omdat
het systematisch outsourcen
van de
maatschappelijk kosten van negative impact door
wet- & regel geving
en stakeholders acties
steeds minder geaccepteerd
zal worden door o.a. Transparantie
van de Maatschappelijke Kosten & Opbrengsten.
Het is ook het begin van een nieuwe inclusieve
bedrijfscultuur die
sociale cohesie &
loyaliteit aan bedrijven
versterkt.
STAP
3 :
Positieve
Impact voor People & Planet vergroten
ofwel de kernactiviteiten sturen naar basisbehoeften & impact
accelerators mn #tech dus zowel kwaliteit als kwantiteit; investeren
& revenues berekenen van activiteiten met positieve impact door
bijvoorbeeld Green Indices & Sustainable Development Goals
indices.
Deze indices hebben als doel exposure
aan risico's te verminderen,
impliciet moedigen ze investeringen in impact sectoren & nieuwe
bedrijfsmodellen aan. Kenmerk van de indices : ze omvatten bekende
duurzame
darlings & systemic corporations. Zoals de:
The
(Russel) FTSE Green Revenues Index Series is
designed to obtain increased exposure to companies engaged in the
transition to a green economy, based on FTSE’s
Green Revenues data model. The
indexes are designed to capture changes in the
revenue mix of companies as their business models shift to the
delivery of goods, products and services that allow the world to
adapt to, mitigate or remediate the impacts of climate change,
resource depletion and environmental erosion.
http://www.ftse.com/products/indices/green-revenues
Rater MSCI heeft in 2016 een Sustainable Impact Themes index gemaakt van 100 large & midcaps op basis van social & environmental revenues ie bedrijsfactiviteiten die bijdragen aan de UN Global Sustainable Development Goals.
'The
MSCI ACWI Sustainable Impact Index aims to identify companies that
derive at least 50% of their revenues from products and services that
address environmental and social challenges as defined by the themes
outlined above. The index, which excludes companies that fail to meet
minimum environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards, weights
securities by the percentage of revenue derived from products or
services that address the themes.
Based on MSCI ESG Sustainable Impact Metrics, using index constituents and weights as of March 2016, the MSCI ACWI Sustainable Impact Index had 71% greater exposure to estimated company revenue derived from sustainable impact solutions compared to the parent, MSCI ACWI Index'.

indexbouwer
Solactive hebben voor de Wereldbank een #SDG index gemaakt met 50 large caps voor een Note die in Italië als retail product verkrijgbaar is.
Solactive
announces the launch of the
Solactive
Sustainable Development Goals World Index
– a new index which enables investors to gain exposure to companies
that have been identified as making a significant contribution to the
advancement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). The bank plans to issue structured products tied to the
indices later this year.

STAP
3 is
bedrijfseconomisch
intelligent gericht op
megatrends & de
lange(re) termijn: groeikansen door gerichte investeringen
& kostenbesparingen o.a. voor kapitaal door aantrekkelijker te
zijn voor investeerders.
STAP
4 : De onderneming
als Societal Solution Provider
zoals Beinhocker & Hanauer in hun framework van de ontwikkeling
van het kapitalisme en hun visie op New
Capitalism schetsen.
In
STAP 4 zijn bedrijfsactiviteiten met negatieve impact afgebouwd of
worden volledig en bij voorkeur in ruimere mate gecompenseerd door
business modellen met positieve impact. Eitje
toch?
Nu alleen of even het hoe.
Dat
is veel simpeler dan ik dacht.
Systemen
als IRIS Integrated Reporting Investment Standards (the Global Impact
Investing Network) die de impact return on investment transparant
maken door GIIRS: Global Impact Investing Rating System zijn nuttig
voor verfijning, maar we kunnen al grote stappen zetten in de public
equity kapitaalmarkt.
De
Holy Grail
is
in handen van de Risk Raters.
Of
het nu van huis uit ESG research bureau's zijn of (financial) Risk
Raters, het zijn disciplines die steeds meer naar elkaar toegegroeid
zijn getuige de nieuw gestarte ESG afdelingen van traditionele Risk
Raters en bijvoorbeeld erkende verifieerders van groene obligaties.
https://www.climatebonds.net/standards/assurance/approved-verifiers
Als
risk raters en indices kunnen bouwen van bedrijven met positieve
impact, dat wil zeggen hun kernactiviteiten en bedrijfsvoering, dan
kunnen ze dat ook van bedrijven met negatieve impact... risico
Voorbeelden:
Morningstar's Wereldbolletjes, hun exclusie instrument, de nieuwe
Carbon Risk Score etc.
Ik
denk dat Risk Raters, voor zowel Environment, Social & Governance
als Financial Risk prima de negatieve impact & postieve impact
kunnen berekenen.
VRAAG:
Maar wie van hun klanten wil betalen voor een rating met als
eindoordeel 'negative impact' & 'stranded asset'?
ANTWOORD:
Een klein & select gezelschap.
Sapere
Aude : Durf te Weten!
De
politiek moet dit toch willen weten om de impact transitie te
versnellen en strategisch aan te sturen....?

What prosperity is, where
growth comes from, why markets work, and how we resolve the tension
between a prosperous world and a moral one. By
Nick
Hanauer Eric
Beinhocker from Winter
2014, No. 31 & als McKinsey alumni in
https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/long-term-capitalism/redefining-capitalism
Despite its ability to
generate prosperity, capitalism is under attack. By shaking up our
long-held assumptions about how and why the system works, we can
improve it.
