Information

Why we need to look at Emerging Markets (EM) both to drive real world change and also to maintain financial returns. In the workshop Cardano will explore the changing landscape of impact investing. They will show how investing in the EM can help both the risk and return profile of portfolios as well as the lives of those in the areas Cardano invests, using real life examples to bring this to life, and show you why in the EM you really do get more impact per GBP you invest.
