ImpactAlpha is excited to introduce the newest addition of our podcast network: Impact Investing Musings, produced by AVPN and hosted by Vikas Arora. In this episode, Arora speaks with the Ford Foundation’s Roy Swan and Christine Looney about their work aligning a significant portion of the foundation’s endowment with its core philanthropic mission.
Listeners will gain insights into:
- Roy and Christine’s personal journey applying their years in traditional finance to shift market fundamentals in the endowment world.
- The process inside Ford: how they challenged industry norms by redefining traditional capital in its use for impact investing, paving the way for others to explore similar paths.
- How asset owners can measure success without “analysis paralysis,” by simplifying impact reporting.
