iPAR enables precise insights into actual portfolio composition as compared to mission intention and alignment
Thematic Alignment: What problems are you solving?
iPAR Themes
Broadly define your impact goals
Many investors have a vaguely defined mission, and are not sure how best to align it with the growing universe of impact investment opportunities
Though others are very clear about the impact they want to catalyze, there exists no standardized impact classification taxonomy that addresses every asset class
Building Blocks
Refine the impact mission into an intuitive taxonomy
Until now, there's been no easy way for investors to walk through an intuitive range of impact categories
Building Blocks serve as the connective tissue between a strategy's thematic orientation and impact metrics
Geographic Alignment: Where is your focus?
iPAR Geography
Define your geographic focus
Many investors know where they'd like to generate impact, but cannot map with clarity managers' divergently defined focal regions
Investors also need to have the ability to discern what portion of their capital is allocated within a particular area of the world
Actual Investments
Visualize your investments across the globe
Focus is one thing - but where are the companies, projects, and properties to which capital is being deployed?
Every investor appreciates a precise illustration of where in the world their capital is being activated for impact - especially if geography is their primary orientation for where they are investing
Manager Locations
Identify the office sites of the people managing your money
"Boots on the ground" is a critical component of every impact investment strategy, and should therefore be reflected in any platform that imparts insight about an impact portfolio
Given investors' global networks and travels, many want to know where their asset managers are located in order to connect
