Abstract
This research investigates relations between investments funds and funded companies in the impact investing sector. The aim is to offer a first sight of the bond between funds and funded companies, to capture the characteristics that lead more capital and the correspondence between funds and companies characteristics. The research is firstly based on a conspicuous literature review that explores several perspectives on the impact investing phenomenon and gave us guidelines to analyse social enterprises and funds. We conduct quantitative analysis for both, using a unique dataset made by matching by fund name ImpactBase database and Thomson One Banker database; The first database houses the profiles of over 425 investment funds and products and reflects activities, returns and metrics of the impact investing funds currently on ImpactBase.
The second, instead, contains financial data on public companies, as well as mergers and acquisition information and market data
