FaithInvest is an international nonprofit organisation that empowers faith groups to invest in line with their beliefs and values. Their aim is to support the rapidly developing movement of faiths actively using their investments to create a better world – for people and planet.
FaithInvest was formed through the collaboration of significant religious investors, philanthropies, the United Nations, national governments, and investment firms with impact investment expertise. It was incubated by their founder organisation, the Alliance of Religions and Conservations (ARC), a UK-based international NGO founded by HRH Prince Philip in 1995. The concept originated at a landmark meeting in Zug, Switzerland in 2017. However, its roots go much further back.
