Summary
The Refugee Investment Network co-founders John Kluge and Christine Mahoney join David Bank to discuss their new book Banking on Belonging: Why Investing in Refugee Entrepreneurs Benefits Everyone . At a time when more than 120 million people worldwide have been forcibly displaced — the highest level in recorded history – the book makes the case for supportive policy and welcoming environment that can deliver gains for both migrants and host countries. John and Christine bust a few myths along the way and spotlight the enormous economic opportunities in refugee entrepreneurship. Impact capital, they say, may advance the migration conversation where advocacy has fallen short.
