Our conversation begins with a glimpse of Sarah’s inspiring journey from finance, to journalism and now to the critical world of impact investing.

Sarah talks about the 18 years spent at the FT where she ran the FT’s corporate coverage during the financial crisis and her ascent to become the FT’s business editor.

She describes her motivation and the challenges involved with her new role as CEO of the Impact Investing Institute, and her passion about impact investing and its immediate relevance. She speaks frankly about the need for an intelligent and reasoned approach to the ESG debate and provides some invaluable advice for corporations wishing to improve their governance and operate more effectively. She also offers equally important advice for young people thinking about their careers and some additional invaluable insights.
