Established in 1995, Vancity Investment Management was one of the first wealth management firms in Canada to focus on investments that not only deliver competitive returns but also make a positive impact on the world. As pioneers in sustainable investing, we’re committed to finding high-quality investment opportunities that also meet rigorous environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards.
We provide tailored, discretionary management services to individuals, foundations, unions, and other institutions that wish to generate wealth through profitable, sustainable, and responsible investments.
We’re incorporated under the laws of British Columbia and are primarily registered in the categories of Portfolio Manager, Investment Fund Manager, and Exempt Market Dealer. We’ve adhered to responsible investing principles since 2005 and are a signatory to the United Nations Principles of Responsible Investment (UNPRI).
As part of the Vancity Group, we’re vertically integrated with a full range of its services, including financial planning, estates and trusts, lending, and insurance. We share common values with Vancity and support local communities through profit-sharing with our members and a variety of social and environmental organizations. In fact, since 1994, more than $440 million (30 percent) of Vancity’s net profits have been shared with members and communities.
