About the
Investor Leadership Network
The Investor Leadership Network (ILN) was launched at the 2018 G7 as a CEO-led coalition of leading institutional investors committed to accelerating the transition to a sustainable and inclusive global economy. Bringing together 12 globally influential investors from six countries and representing more than US$10 trillion in assets under management, ILN advances long-term value creation through focused collaboration rooted in fiduciary stewardship.
ILN operates as a collaborative platform where members pool expertise, capital perspectives, and institutional influence to address shared investment challenges. Through member-led committees and high-level convenings, the Network develops practical, evidence-based initiatives across priority areas including climate and nature risk, public–private partnerships and private capital mobilization, and talent and culture shaping the future of the investment industry. ILN’s work emphasizes shared learning, consistent methodologies, and real-world application.
The Network is supported by a central Secretariat that enables coordination across workstreams, supports execution, and tracks progress and impact, while strategic direction is set by member CEOs. ILN works closely with governments, foundations, multilateral institutions, and peer organizations, while remaining independent and member-driven.
