Social Impact Week: China and the World

China and the World:

Over the next two decades, it is estimated that we will see USD 3.4 trillion of wealth passed on to a new Chinese generation of high net wealth families. Young investors in China are increasingly showing interest in allocating their portfolios to include socially and environmentally responsible investments. How are institutions readying their investment strategies to accommodate a new injection of impact investment capital? What are current positive examples of Chinese impact investing around the world? How do we support the next Chinese generation in allocating their wealth into environmentally and socially responsible investments?

We will host a lively panel discussion with influential private investors, development organizations, institutional investors and academics of the Chinese social impact investment world on the current state of Chinese social impact investment and how to catalyze the next generation of Chinese private wealth impact investment.

今后20年，据估计，中国高净值家族准备将24万亿人民币的财富传承給下一代。在琢磨考虑其投资组合配置的过程当中，中国的青年投资者越来越愿意考虑资金如何对社会和环境有影响。在此环境下，金融机构如何准备调整投资策略，容纳未来影响力投资资金的增长？目前中国有什么类型的影响力投资案例？作为全球投资者和创业者的社群，我们如何支持中国下一代更好了解影响力投资分配以及策略？

我们将与有影响力的私人投资者、机构投资者以及经济发展组织机构成员们举办有收获的小组讨论，以探讨中国社会影响力投资的现状以及如何促进下一代中国私人财富影响力投资。
