The Impact of Impact Investing
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 We evaluate the quantitative impact of ESG divestitures. For divestitures to have impact they must change the cost of capital of affected firms. We derive a simple expression for the change in the cost of capital as a function of three inputs: (1) the fraction of socially conscious capital, (2) the fraction of targeted firms in the economy and (3) the ...

Patterns and Variation of Littoral Habitat Size Among Lakes
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 The littoral zone varies in size among lakes from ∼3% to 100% of lake surface area. In this paper, we derive a simple theoretical scaling relationship that explains this variation, and test this theory using bathymetric data across the size spectra of ...

ON IMPACT AND IMPACT FACTORS [PDF]
International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 2018 TheInternational Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care(IJTAHC) is part of the so-called Cambridge Core, the “home of academic content” (1). As such, not surprisingly, it is judged by standard scientific standards such as theJournal’s Impact Factor (IF). Although on the rise, there is still significant room for improvement (2).
