Despite a distinct relationship between #genderinequality and #climatechange, investment mandates rarely combine both of these lenses https://loom.ly/Pe-V0lg #e27Stories

As the UN Women #16Days campaign comes to a close, we're reflecting on how financial systems hold untapped potential to create safer, more equitable communities. Criterion focuses on reimagining finance to address GBV at its roots. Our work includes: *Developing frameworks that link investments to GBV prevention outcomes *Advocating for survivor-centered lending models and equity-focused impact bonds. *Encouraging the integration of GBV prevention into ESG and impact investing strategies. The end of #16Days is just the beginning. Join leaders in #genderlensinvesting at Convergence XXI in February to explore how finance can be a powerful tool for gender-equitable systemic change, including strategies to combat gender-based violence.

At Gravis, we're committed to making a meaningful impact through our investments. By focusing on assets that are essential to society and contribute to a greener economy, we align our strategy with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These goals, established in 2015, aim to create a better and more sustainable world by 2030. Our investment strategy is centred around SDGs that are highly relevant to our business, sector, and stakeholders. These include goals like clean and affordable energy, gender equality, and sustainable cities and communities. The business case for investing in sectors aligned with the SDGs is clear, and it's one that resonates deeply with our investors. Through our strategies, we contribute to areas such as climate change mitigation and adaptation, energy transition, critical infrastructure, affordable living, social housing, education, and healthcare.

Gender funds have been haemorrhaging cash despite delivering some of their punchiest returns in years. Global active funds and ETFs backing female-led businesses racked up $1.4bn in net outflows in 2023, according to estimates from Morningstar shared exclusively with Financial News. The UBS Global Gender Equality ETF has seen assets more than halve since 2022, while the Robeco Global Gender Equality Equities fund and Impax Ellevate Global Women’s Leadership fund have also shed cash. The ramp up in redemptions comes as City diversity champs such as Helena Morrissey and Justin Onuekwusi warn that the anti-ESG backlash risks spreading to the DE&I movement. #ESG #genderdiversity https://lnkd.in/ebrNBtxh

Environmental destruction, war, human rights violations, gender inequality—there’s no shortage of things you may not want to support with your investments. Enter Genus screens: https://bit.ly/3YDmjyH All of our responsible investing portfolios come with this key feature built in, to assure investors their dollars are making a difference where they want them to. 🌎 Aligned with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), our screens give investors the ability to remove certain types of companies— or even whole industries—from their portfolios. In our High Impact Funds, we also “screen in” companies and industries that make a positive impact in the world, from education and clean energy to sustainable cities. You can learn a bit more about our screens and how we verify our data in our latest blog post. Link 👆 #genuscapital #sustainableinvesting #responsibleinvesting #investingscreens
