Pensions for Purpose was delighted to invite Place-Based Impact Investing Forum members to the online all-stakeholder event at 14:00 on Wednesday 7 June 2023. 
 
Brunel Pension Partnership and Cornwall Pension Fund have collaborated to construct an innovative solution to bring impact investing to Cornwall in an efficient and economic package using the scale that Brunel affords. Through their strategies, they have been able to channel LGPS investment into affordable private rental housing and renewables in the county. 
 
Delegates joined us for a presentation to learn more about this structure, followed by a chance our members to ask questions on this arrangement and support their own plans and framework building.

The Place-Based Impact Investing Forum

The Place-Based Impact Investing Forum was established by Pensions for Purpose and The Good Economy and is run in partnership with the Impact Investing Institute to help pension funds and other asset owners make informed decisions about place-based investments. We do this by sharing place-based-related thought leadership written by our members (asset managers, consultants and lawyers), by running training workshops for trustees and by engaging in industry-wide conversation through our quarterly all-stakeholder and asset-owner events.
