IRIS+ is the generally accepted system for measuring, managing, and optimizing impact.
IRIS Metrics Work Better in Sets
To use IRIS metrics—and the resulting data—to understand impact performance, IRIS metrics should be used and analyzed in generally accepted sets and according to well-defined objectives. IRIS+ gives you access to generally accepted Core Metrics Sets aligned to common Impact Themes and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
IRIS metrics are designed to measure the social, environmental and financial performance of an investment.
The JII provide the shared high level-indicators that impact investors can use to measure and report on their activities across sectors, themes, and/or categories. For detailed understanding of impact performance in specific sectors, themes, and/or categories, refer to IRIS+ Core Metrics Sets, set up a profile
