    Global Impact Investing Network September 25th 2009 New Industry Group Launched to Facilitate For-Profit Investing that Addresses Social and Environmental Challenges New York City, September 25, 2009—President Bill Clinton today announced the launch of the Global Impacting Investing Network (GIIN), a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting more effective impact investing around the world, at the Clinton Global Initiative. Impact investing is the use of for-profit investment to address social and environmental problems. The GIIN will promote the infrastructure, activities, education, and research that enable more effective impact investing, and will ultimately lead to a coherent, well-developed marketplace for the impact investing industry. Two major initiatives begin this work: The GIIN Investors’ Council - a group of leading impact investors representing a diverse range of institutions from around the world. The Investors’ Council will provide leadership in the industry, disseminate the latest research and best practices in the field, and support the creation and adoption of industry infrastructure, including impact metrics. The Impact Reporting and Investment Standards (IRIS) – initiative to provide a common framework for measuring social and environmental impact of investments. IRIS addresses a major barrier to the growth of the impact investing industry – the lack of transparency and credibility in how funds define, track, and report on the social and environmental performance of their capital. “This network is a response to growing appetites from investors across the world for a platform that allows them to work together to capture the powerful potential of impact investing,” said Amit Bouri, Director of Strategy and Development for the GIIN.

    DISRUPTION BOOKS 2017 CONTENTS A DISRUPTIVE APPROACH 5 FRONTLIST Being Dead Is Bad for Business 7 The Resistance Handbook 9 Where Have You Gone, Harry Truman? 11 Back to Balance 13 The Green Amendment 15 BACKLIST Rescuing Retirement 17 Moneyball for Government 19 Greenthink 21 Decision Making In The Leadership Chair 23 A DISRUPTIVE APPROACH Disruption Books is an independent publisher focused on nonfiction thought leadership. After spending years working with the publishing industry, we concluded that it was badly broken, especially for the goals and timelines of high-profile authors with provocative ideas. So we decided to start a publishing company designed with these authors specifically in mind. And we’ve built something that can offer more than most publishers: Full editorial control of the manuscript. We will make recommendations about the most strategic and marketable way to structure a book, and define its tone and content, but we will ultimately defer to our authors on the direction the book takes. This is dramatically different than the experience with traditional publishing houses, where the editor’s views, not the author’s, will be the ultimate arbiter of the project’s direction. Guaranteed publication. We publish without the representation of an agent, based on our authors’ timelines and the timeliness of a book’s content, rather than the constraints of a traditional publishing calendar. Ownership of the editorial rights and a larger share of royalties. Traditional publishers pay authors between 4 and 10 percent of the list price of a book. Disruption Books offers its authors royalties of 25 to 75 percent of the net sales.

  • 2017–2018 Donor Listing
    2017–2018 Donor Listing Gifts to the Annual Fund Operating Grants Endowment and Other Special Gifts The Council on Foreign Relations receives charitable contributions from a variety of pri- vate sources, including its members, corporations, and foundations. As the premier foreign policy organization in the United States, CFR plays a leading role in contributing to the intellectual momentum that is needed to address a broad spectrum of current and emerging problems, and unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund help ensure the organization’s inde- pendence and nonpartisanship. Gifts to CFR are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by U.S. law and, in the case of individual members, are contributed over and above annual membership dues. ANNUAL FUND Gifts to the Annual Fund account for 15 percent of the organization’s operating budget each year. This critical unrestricted revenue provides support for the Council’s meetings, research, website, and related activities. The Annual Fund surpassed $10.5 million this year, with 1,621 members participating. Our leadership group of Annual Fund benefactors, the Harold Pratt Associates (gifts from $25,000 to $49,999), had 242 members, and, of those, 98 members qualified as members of the Chairman’s Circle with their gifts of $50,000 or more. CFR is honored to acknowledge those members who supported the 2017–2018 Annual Fund in the list that follows. Many Council members leveraged their gifts by participating in matching gift programs, and sponsoring corporations and foundations are recognized here as well. CHAIRMAN’S CIRCLE David M.
