ImpactAssets IA 50 provides clarity for the field with an annual showcase of vetted and trusted funds, including JFF’s.
In the complex ecosystem of impact investing, identifying experienced and emerging fund managers can be challenging. To help investors, financial advisors, and philanthropists navigate the market, ImpactAssets offers a database of vetted and trusted funds called the IA 50, which includes Jobs for the Future’s ETF@JFFLabs impact fund.
Now in its eleventh year, the IA 50 is the most recognized free database of impact investment fund managers. For two years in a row, ETF@JFFLabs has been featured in the IA 50’s Emerging Impact Manager category, which highlights newer fund managers who demonstrate the potential to create meaningful impact in the future. Criteria such as minimum track record or minimum assets under management may not be applicable.
ETF@JFFLabs, also known as the Employment Technology Fund, is the first and only fund focused on early-stage technology solutions that help low-wage workers move into higher-paying positions in fields that offer opportunities for economic advancement.
Fund managers selected to the IA 50 engage in a wide range of impact investing activities across multiple geographies, sectors, and asset classes.
This group of managers reflects the intentionality of our manager selection process to provide investors with a resource that shines a light on the breadth and diversity of impact fund managers. These managers bring unique and informed perspectives to the challenges impact investing is addressing.
