FaithInvest helps religious groups to invest in line with their values. We support the rapidly growing movement of faiths and faith-based asset owners actively using their investments to create a better world – for people and planet.
FaithInvest is an international, not-for-profit network serving religious groups and faith-based institutional investors. We support faith organisations seeking to invest in line with their values to achieve environmental and social impact.
The world's faiths have billions of dollars invested in global markets, across all asset classes. We empower religious asset owners to align their investments with their faith values, for the benefit of people and planet.
We do this by:
Convening a vibrant NETWORK for faith-based investors
Providing insightful TRAINING, education, exchange and collaboration
Offering tailored, one-on-one ACCOMPANIMENT on the faith-consistent investing journey.
Promotes faith-consistent, values-driven investing and investment transparency
Empowers faiths to align their investments with their values
Builds skills and capacity
Serves as a bridge to faith-aligned and values-driven investing
NB: We do not provide investment advice or make investment decisions for faith-based asset owners.
Our question to faith groups is: 'You're doing great things with what you get from the returns on your investments. But where you are putting your funds? The inexorable logic is that your values should affect everything you do – including where you invest your money in the first place.
Our live-taught, online training course is designed to support faith organisations to go further in their faith-consistent investing (FCI) journey.
Faithful Finance: AlignIng Investments with Faith Values covers the foundational principles of faith-consistent investing in four 90-minute sessions over four weeks.
The next course starts on Tuesday 20 May and runs until Tuesday 10 June. It costs £295 per person – or £250 if you book by May 9 to capitalise on our early bird offer! To find out more, click below.
We exist to grow the scale and impact of faith-consistent investing worldwide by supporting faith groups to invest in line with their values – for the benefit of people and planet. Our vision is of a world in which faith groups, motivated by their passionate conviction that investing in line with their values will achieve a just and sustainable world, actively use their investments for the common good.
We have a range of free-to-access and paid-for services, including free assessments of investment policies for faith-based organisations and a network of like-minded investors. We also offer training courses, one-on-one consultative support and more. Contact us to see how we can help your organisation.
Faith-consistent investing (FCI) is about ensuring your investments reflect your faith values. It is about going further than avoiding harm through negative screening but instead also about investing positively in a way that reflects your organisation's beliefs, values and principles. We have resources and guides to help you on your FCI journey!
