EQ Investors (EQ) has been named as the ‘Best Sustainable & ESG Wealth Manager/DFM Group‘ at the Investment Week Sustainable & ESG Investment Awards 2021.

The award completes a hat trick of award success during September, with EQ named ‘Charity Champion of the Year’ by leading industry magazine Money Marketing; and EQ collecting ‘Community Investment Award (SME)’ at the Global Good Awards.

Building on a 15-year history, the Investment Week Sustainable & ESG Investment Awards are intended to honour best-in-class fund providers, research & ratings teams and service providers who have a key part to play as sustainable and ESG investing moves firmly mainstream.

During a time of transition and rapid development, these awards are more important than ever in scrutinising sustainable and ESG investment propositions and highlighting excellence in this space.

The coveted title of ‘Best Sustainable & ESG Wealth Manager/DFM Group’ is an important award for us because it brings with it the recognition of our work over the last ten years in the sustainable investing space.

EQ’s Head of Impact Investing, Damien Lardoux said:

“I am over the moon that the judges recognised our focus and passion for sustainability which has been driving our investment team for about a decade now. Whether a client wants to invest sustainably at a low cost or actively invest in companies providing solutions to the challenges we face, our range of sustainable solutions can cater to most client needs and have been recognised for their originality.

“This award should be shared with the asset managers we work with and our clients who we thank for their ongoing support.”

Building a more inclusive and sustainable economy

At EQ, the ethos of the firm puts sustainability at the heart of all our decisions and we’re thrilled that our efforts in doing this have been recognised across a number of annual industry awards.
