Calvert Impact
Jennifer Pryce is President and CEO of Calvert Impact, a global nonprofit investment firm. Over the past decade, Jenn has shaped the strategic direction of Calvert Impact to focus on innovation, sustainability, and scale. Under her leadership the organization has tripled the size of its flagship product, broadened the organization’s mission to focus on equitable climate solutions, expanded the corporate structure to support the development of new products and services and has industry-wide efforts on how to scale impact with integrity.
The infrastructure she has built has led to the launch of two new financial products – the Cut Carbon Note, an asset-backed security driving building decarbonization, and the Mission Driven Bank Fund, a growth capital fund for MDI and CDFI banks focused on addressing the racial wealth gap. As well as the development of a consortium, Climate United, to compete for the mandate to manage the $14 billion National Clean Investment Fund, a component of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) passed in the Inflation Reduction Act and multiple small business liquidity funds that has directed over $500MM of capital to the smallest of businesses with a design to scale to reach more businesses.
Jenn began her career in the Peace Corps before working for NeubergerBerman, the investment banking team in Morgan Stanley’s London office, and Nonprofit Finance Fund, a Community Development Financial Institution. Jenn studied engineering at Union College and holds an MBA from Columbia University. She currently serves as a Forbes contributor and a lecturer at Oxford Saïd School of Business. She is a board member of UNICEF USA Impact Fund for Children and a member of the Advisory Board of Ecofin and the Operating Principles for Impact Management.
