We spend a lot of time working with our clients to align their investments with their ESG values. But we also make sure we walk that talk as a company.
At Genus, we believe that impact is most meaningful – and sustainable – when it’s built on a broader foundation. It’s a powerful way to rethink how you contribute, using not just your dollars but also your time, talent, relationships, values and knowledge to drive the outcomes you care about most.
As AI evolves and proliferates at breakneck speed, its insatiable need for energy is surpassing the capacity of today’s infrastructure. This rapid growth in energy consumption is forcing companies to rethink how AI is powered. And that means opportunities for renewable energy sector investors.
As Canadians brace for another climate change summer, investors must not lose sight of long-term climate risks – and the opportunities the clean energy transition presents.
Market volatility can be uncomfortable for any investor – but for retirees, it can hit a little harder. With your income generating years behind you, and a greater reliance on investment income, retirees and those close to retirement may face anxiety when markets take a dive.
A theory of change is essentially a statement about how a specific strategy or action can lead to an expected outcome. In the context of social, environmental or systems change, a theory of change allows an investor to clearly articulate the outcome they’re looking for, and how they’ll get there.
ESG investing isn’t going away, and is predicted to continue growing over the next decade. And many ESG investors are staying the course – buoyed by the knowledge that their investments are needed now more than ever.
Many institutions champion impact as part of their core mission. Whether they’re funding social programs, supporting environmental initiatives or working to reduce inequalities, organizations such as community foundations, educational institutions, non-profits and religious institutions are striving to make a difference in their communities and beyond.
For many people, current economic and global events have also prompted a reevaluation of financial priorities – in fact, 83 per cent of Canadians are rethinking their financial plans due to growing economic uncertainty.
Addressing and advancing social issues is at the core of most philanthropists’ goals. And doing it twice, by investing the funds for impact before they’re bestowed, has been happening around the world – and here in Canada – for decades.
