Abstract

There is no denying its recent popularity around the world. Compared to many countries in the world, China’s impact investment ecosystem was just in its early stage. Impact investing in China is an important case study for the industry globally, in large part due to China’s potential market size and current importance in the financial market, as well as the unique challenges facing China’s impact investing ecosystem. In many respects, China is a market well-suited for impact investing. Faced with looming social and environmental issues, the government’s national development plans have laid out ambitious and sweeping goals for society’s development and the amelioration of its most pressing social problems. Impact investment by the private sector has the potential to fill the funding gap necessary to meet these objectives. Issues most prominent in the minds of China’s leaders include a fast-aging population, environmental pollution and destruction, and increasing income inequality (especially in rural areas).
