Book excerpt: This extensive report aims to provide a "state of the market" landscape analysis of the impact investing industry in six countries across South Asia -- Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Impact investments, as defined by the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN), are investments that intentionally seek to generate social and/or environmental impact alongside a financial return.
