Corinne
Corinne started impact investing even before the term was invented, over 27 years ago when she met Frank van Beuningen. She began investing with him and other members of Pymwymic (Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Community). In fact, she set out alone on a journey to discover what drives her while making decisions about ‘where to invest’. It took time and alertness to create a trusted environment of people who aligned with her interests.
Corinne is now involved with smaller independent wealth firms, direct investments, and impact funds. It is never boring. You always encounter investment challenges, and sometimes you support friends and family. Finding her purpose in life brought immense joy and adventure. It involved establishing a global network of female entrepreneurs.
