Esta dissertação tem o objetivo de compreender o que "impacto" significa quando se fala em investimentos de impacto, focando na sua medição e prática através da indústria. Uma breve revisão de literatura permite entender as principais características da indústria, identificar os atores envolvidos e as últimas iniciativas para a medição de impacto. O estudo de caso com a GoParity, uma start-up portuguesa que atua como intermediadora no mercado de investimentos de impacto, oferece uma perspectiva mais próxima do funcionamento da indústria, particularmente nos desafios que existem para avaliar, monitorar e gerir impacto. As conclusões sugerem que, apesar sde desafios acerca da medição do impacto, uma combinação de ferramentas, vontade organizacional e recursos podem fortalecer a qualidade e escala dos investimentos de impacto para solidificar mudanças sustentáveis na sociedade.
This dissertation aims to comprehend what "impact" means within impact investments, focusing on its measurement and its practice throughout the industry. A brief literature review allows us to understand the main features of the industry, the involved actors and to identify the latest initiatives for impact measurement. The case study of GoParity, a Portuguese start-up acting as an intermediary in the impact investment market, is expected to offer a closer insight into the working of the industry, particularly on the challenges it faces to assess, monitor, and manage impact. The conclusions suggest that despite challenges surrounding measurement, a better built combination of tools, organizational will and resources can strengthen the quality and scale of impact investments to solidify lasting changes in society.
