Investing for Impact: Working Together We Can Create an Economy that Works for AllAmerican capitalism has built an economy of abundance unrivaled in human history, but along the way it has stumbled. Private enterprises working only to maximize profits has contributed to a crisis of societal and environmental problems. Recent events -- the murder of George Floyd, the severe market disruptions caused by COVID-19, the growing acceptance that markets will be transformed by global climate change -- have sparked social upheavals that have exposed the fragility of financial markets and the inequities that have always been present within them.Building on a career of innovative market approaches that create opportunity to fund businesses and housing for those often left behind, Frank Altman has written a book that can help markets survive recent turmoil while doing good for far more people. Moreover, Altman has proven that good can be accomplished while preserving highly profitable investment opportunities. A New Capitalism is a must-read book for those in the financial sector, filled not just with thoughtful analysis but with pragmatic market solutions. From an industry leader who was shaping market responses to ESG (environmental, social, and governance) investing long before it was a recognized term, A New Capitalism is the book that can lead the financial industry into the future and expand the reach of capitalism.
