We help investors understand how healthy environmental, social, and financial systems support long-term investment. We believe that with the proper guidance and tools, investors can help to fortify these systems.
TIIP develops tools for pursuing system-level investing, an advanced sustainable investing strategy for managing systemic risks and investing in solutions to systemic problems (e.g. climate change, income inequality, economic crises).
Establish the theoretical frameworks for system-level investing
Convene industry experts to discuss system-level investing challenges and to share solutions
Identify, examine, and disseminate best practices in system-level investing
Develop frameworks for measuring and reporting on investors’ impacts on environmental, social, and financial system-level issues.
Develop system-level investing toolkits and “how-to” guides for investors, asset managers, financial advisors, and others
Assess firms’ sustainable and system-level investing strategies, recommend enhancements
System-level investing helps investors to consider the big-picture environmental, social, or financial systems’ context of their security selection and portfolio construction decisions – not at the expense of long-term investment prospects, but rather to support them.
Profitable investment depends on the health of the physical environment as a source of wealth generation necessary for future prosperity
Natural resource depletion, climate change, and decreased access to fresh water are among those systemic environmental issues that threaten investors’ futures
Societies provide the foundational cultural and legal structures upon which businesses thrive
Income inequality, poverty, poor health, and dangerous working conditions – among other things – threaten societies’ health and the businesses that depend on it
The global financial system consists of an interlocking network of laws, regulations, institutions and customs that enable the smooth functioning of markets
This system and the investors that depend on it cannot thrive without stability, trust, credibility, inclusiveness, and transparency
TIIP shares insights about system-level investing via presentations and speeches at industry events, through our publications and reports, and in blog posts and op-eds.
