Impact investors can help save the oceans and feed the world. How? By investing in sustainable global fisheries. Please join representatives from Bloomberg Philanthropies, The Rockefeller Foundation, Rare, and Encourage Capital in this webinar to discuss “Investing for Sustainable Global Fisheries”, a report which offers six Investment Blueprints, each intended to serve as a roadmap for the growing number of investors, entrepreneurs, and fishery stakeholders seeking to attract and deploy private capital to scale and accelerate fisheries reform.
Research suggests that impact-focused investors have approximately $5.6 billion in capital to deploy over the next five years and have the means to dramatically reshape the world’s “blue economy.” To better channel the flow of this capital to the need and opportunity of restoring global fisheries, Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Vibrant Oceans Initiative and The Rockefeller Foundation supported Encourage Capital (Encourage) to undertake research and publish “Investing for Sustainable Global Fisheries”. The report explores opportunities to invest in the implementation of sustainable fishing practices across small-scale fisheries, industrial-scale fisheries and national-scale fisheries in Chile, Brazil, and the Philippines.
