The Guidelines for Social Investors are an initiative of GRACE, an Informal Group dedicated to social impact evaluation issues, which integrates entities of different sectors of society (State, companies, foundations, universities and organizations). Montepio Foundation participated actively in GRACE.
These guidelines identify the main concepts and principles for social impact assessment. The main goal is to define the basic standards for social investor’s behavior, regarding the analysis and selection of social projects, the projects sustainability, the creating of shared value and the promotion of social impact measurement as a condition for investment. The guidelines also underline the importance of technical and financial support to social impact measurement.
