The private sector represents the largest part of the economy in most countries. It is thus promising that a growing number of investors have expressed interest in taking social and environmental issues into account in their investment decisions. Yet, the impact of this growing interest in sustainable development is unclear, in part because of confusion regarding what sustainable investment means and a lack of consensus on how to measure its impact. Through its analytical work, the Inter-agency Task Force on Financing for Development could help create greater global consensus on the definition of sustainable investment and the measurement of investment impacts, building on both public and private efforts.
