🌍 Sustainability has become a baseline.

But for investors focused on long-term value, the real question is whether it’s actually enough.

In this episode of SRI360, I speak with Laura Ortiz Montemayor, founder of SVX México and Managing Partner of Regenera Ventures, about what happens when sustainability strategies fail to address real climate risk, biodiversity loss, and systemic investment outcomes.

Laura has worked inside traditional finance, and now builds regenerative finance strategies across Latin America. Her perspective challenges the assumption that “doing less harm” is the same as creating long-term value.

We talk about:
✅why impact investing must move beyond sustainability toward regeneration
✅how climate finance changes when you account for nature risk and communities
✅what regenerative investing looks like in practice, not theory
✅why capital allocation, not intention, ultimately shapes outcomes

If you’re navigating impact investing, climate finance, or sustainable investing, this conversation offers a clearer, more grounded framework for thinking about risk, systems, and long-term returns.

Anish Majmudar asked an insurance company a simple question: with climate disasters happening more often, shouldn't your premiums be going up?

The answer he got back stuck with him — there's no evidence of that in the data. Look at 200 years of numbers, and it's not significant.

That's the trap, he says. If you make every decision by looking backward, you'll get the future badly wrong. It's why his team started building for what's coming, not what's already happened.

🌍 The biggest risk investors face right now isn’t just climate change, geopolitics, or emerging-market volatility.

🧱 The real threat in impact investing is inertia.

Capital stays in familiar places because big asset owners can get satisfactory returns elsewhere. So, unless incentives and information change, inertia wins.

This episode is about why social investment keeps getting stuck, even when good people across government, finance, and communities are trying to do the right thing…

💸 And what actually has to change for money to start moving.

It focuses on where incentives misfire and how to scale impact investing and social investment beyond pilot projects.

I’m joined by Nick Hurd, former UK minister and now Chair of GSG Impact. Nick has worked across government, finance, and civil society.

We talk about:
✅ how outcome-based finance works in practice
✅ how social investment moves risk off taxpayers
✅ where social impact bonds work (and where not)
✅ why climate finance must account for communities, not just emissions

Maya Chorengel has a word for what she looks for: collinearity. Impact and financial return pointing the exact same way, with no tug-of-war between them.

If a company forces a choice — grow the business or grow the good, but not both — then the Rise Fund walks away. Not because it's a bad company, but because their money isn't the right fit. That's a fund with a fiduciary duty to pension savers who can't take below-market returns, and a real commitment to impact. She won't pretend those two things always line up. She just only invests where they do.
