The Nuveen global fixed income 2021 impact report demonstrates how impact investing in public fixed income markets is not only possible, but vital to addressing many of the large-scale, systemic challenges the world faces today.
Traditional portfolio construction techniques can be adapted to create portfolios with impact objectives. To do this, investors must be clear on the impact they are aiming to achieve and be able to measure it.
This paper demonstrates how investors can leverage existing industry frameworks to develop a holistic approach for considering positive and negative impacts in any investment or portfolio. It also shows how investors can leverage traditional portfolio analysis tools – such as the standard mean variance portfolio optimization model – to plot the most efficient path to achieving impact objectives. Examples are drawn from Nuveen’s global impact private equity strategy and private real assets platform, which includes farmland, timberland and infrastructure assets.
Nuveen’s rich legacy and determination to make an enduring impact drives our multifaceted perspective on responsible investing (RI). Our commitment builds on over five decades of RI leadership through our parent company, TIAA, for whom we act as asset manager. Today, we continue to build on this legacy and apply our RI principles across our $1.3 trillion in assets under management.1 We recognize that our clients expect us to be good stewards of their investments. Therefore, we implement a set of principles that support well-functioning markets to preserve financial, social and environmental capital. Data analytics and measurement form the foundation of our analysis, ensuring a robust and informed approach.
