Abstract
Given that several of the early SSE-type funding platforms have come and gone and most of the remaining ones are limited in size and activity, very little empirical research has been done specifically on SSEs. However, the recent growth of SSX in the UK, continued work on BVSA, IX, BRiiX, and SVX in Mexico, as well as the upcoming launch of the new SVX in Canada and GIIVX in Austria, may in the near- and mid-term future provide increasing opportunities for studying the nature and operations of these platforms and their relationship to the broader field of impact entrepreneurship and investing. At the same time the UN SDG may function as a game changer as they establish a vision, a ToC and a universally agreed impact goal endorsed by 194 member states, which helps in creating a level playing field in the financial sector at least for the impact investing segment.
