Impact investors seek financial return and positive economic, social or environmental impact. While certain segments of the impact investing industry see strong returns and high positive impact as conflicting objectives, others argue that strong performance across both objectives can be simultaneously achieved. Despite the importance of this question to the industry, no widely accepted framework exists that enables impact investors to determine whether and how they will be able to invest without a trade-off. This article draws on contract theory and the analysis of incentives in multitask principal–agent relationships in an attempt to fill the void.
