Impact Evaluation Lab

Whether intentional or incidental, beneficial or adverse, every investment has an impact.

At IEL, we believe that invested capital is one of the most powerful drivers of change. We also believe that environmental and social impact need not be at odds with making a financial return. We are not alone, the worldwide impact investing market is estimated to be $1.16 trillion, and it's poised for explosive growth over the next 10-15 years.

While growing interest and industry size are very positive developments, there also a need for further action.

A new, rigorous analytic methodology is needed to resolve these market inefficiencies, close crucial market gaps, and promote the next chapter of human flourishing.

IEL’s standardized rating system, the Impact Authenticity Score (IAS) assesses the authenticity and probability of specific investment products and strategies to deliver both desired, non-financial results and financial returns relative to market benchmarks.

At Impact Evaluation Lab (IEL), we are redefining the landscape of impact investing by refining and deploying a cutting-edge standardized rating and assessment system - the Impact Authenticity Score (IAS), that meticulously evaluates the authenticity and rigor of asset managers in delivering on their impact missions.

We're a small startup on a mission to make a difference by highlighting investment funds and strategies that are truly making an impact while generating a financial return.

We're at an exciting stage, working to bring transparency, consistency, and standardization to an industry poised for explosive growth.

Over the next 10 years, trillions of dollars are expected to flow into the top performing impact investment strategies. At Impact Evaluation Lab, we match asset owners with asset managers.

Investments will be driven by accountability, transparency, and foresight. We help asset owners seeking authentic impact strategies identify fund managers with expertise, skill, and desired results.
