IMPACT MONDAY – Policy and Regulation: Four Opportunities that Unlock Billions for Impact  

March 24, 2025
6:30 pm

About the Session

 Achieving a sustainable future in Belgium and meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 will require significant investment—amounting to billions of euros each year. To bridge this gap, Impact Finance Belgium (IFB) highlights how Policy and Regulation can play a key role in mobilizing private sector investment, turning businesses and investors into vital partners in funding this transformation.
 

In its latest report, IFB proposed four strategic policies designed to unlock billions in additional private capital for sustainable and impact-driven projects. These solutions aim to democratize impact finance, engage institutional investors, and optimize public funding without increasing government expenditure.

Here’s how Belgium can drive this shift:

1.                 Leverage private capital by repurposing State support for projects generating positive environmental and social impact. 

2.                 Unlock retail savings to enable citizens to participate in sustainable growth in Belgium. 

3.                 Stimulate institutional investors to direct part of their investments towards scaling societal benefits. 

4.                 Adopt green budgeting and frameworks at federal and regional levels to facilitate the transition to a sustainable and inclusive future. 

To bring these policies to life, IFB’s Senior Project Manager, Solène Collin, will showcase successful case studies from the UK and France, demonstrating how similar approaches have driven capital toward sustainability. The event will also feature a special introduction by IFB’s new CEO, Pierre Harkay.
