TPG, Brookfield and Cambridge Associates on impact investing at scale

In light of geopolitical and macroeconomic challenges, how are investors approaching large-scale impact investing today?

Last month, New Private Markets hosted its first webcast. With the help of Brookfield's Kelly Goddard, TPG's Steve Ellis and Cambridge Associates' Tom Mitchell, we dissected the Impact 75 – our list of the largest managers of impact capital – and what it tells us about the current state of play for impact investing in private markets.

For anyone unable to join us in July, this episode offers an abridged version of the conversation. Listen to hear our guests address some key questions for the market, including:

• What LPs are looking for from impact managers in 2026;
• Whether sustainability regulation is a help or a hindrance;
• The extent to which it is still possible to raise capital from US institutions;
• How efforts to catalyse capital flows into emerging markets impact are developing
