Here Sir Ronnie provides the core operating manual for those seeking to do good while also doing well." - Bono, Lead Singer of U2 and Co-Founder of The Rise Fund ◦ 'Impact is a new and very important idea to reshape and save our economic system.' - Paul Romer, Nobel Prize in Economics, 2018 ◦ 'The book is timely, visionary, bold...and thoroughly persuasive.' - Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks ◦ "The most genuinely hopeful and important work on finance and society I've read or imagined reading in decades." - Peter Sacks, Professor of English and American Literature and Language, Harvard University Throughout the world, capitalism and democracy are being challenged with great force. We are facing huge social and environmental problems. The world must change, but we cannot change it by throwing money at old ideas that no longer work. We must adjust our approach. To change the world, we must change how we do business, starting with where and how we invest our money. In IMPACT, Sir Ronnie Cohen shows that a solution is within our grasp. He calls it the Impact Revolution. He shows us how, driven by impact investment, it is reshaping our economic system, transforming the private sector from a polluter and driver of inequality into a powerful force for good; distributing opportunity more fairly; and bringing solutions to our great social and environmental challenges. And that it promises to be as innovative and disruptive as the Tech Revolution that has preceded it.
