About this episode

How do you solve the world’s biggest problems? That’s what CEO and Founder Kimberley Abbott wrote on her whiteboard one day that set in train the origin story for Vested Impact, a FinTech company whose mission is to redefine what it is to be a millionaire.

“The single biggest impact a business leader can have in achieving meaningful change is to pick a solution to a problem that matters. For us it meant redefining what it is to be a millionaire to be a person who impacts millions of lives.” Kimberley Abbott, CEO and Founder of Vested Impact.

In this episode, Kimberley discusses how setting up a social enterprise in India as a 21 year old, influenced her decision to want to create scale and make a positive and world changing impact on as many lives as possible. Kim worked for the United Nations on her way to establishing Vested Impact and its unique algorithm that enables people to make decisions on where to invest their money based on where it makes the biggest impact on society.

This episode is part of Ashurst’s special Outpacing Change mini-series that includes a collection of conversations with innovators and disruptors who have challenged the status-quo and are changing the world around them.
