Why choose EQ?

We are an award-winning discretionary fund manager specialising in sustainable investing. EQ's investment team, which manages over £2bn in assets, has been pioneering impact investing for more than a decade.

We partner with financial advisers, charities and corporates and offer off-the-shelf Model Portfolios, a unitised range, a Discretionary Portfolio Service or a partner-based approach — building tailored investment strategies designed for your target markets.

“Client felt more comfortable with EQ taking the reins on the investment side and was happy with the greater history of past performance, multiple funds but also the alignment to the UN goals and the impact statement.”

Adam Herbert, Herbert & Webster

Proud to be a B Corp

EQ Investors is a founding certified B Corporation — a testament to our commitment to doing business as a force for good.

At the heart of EQ is a belief that business decisions should consider people, planet and purpose. Our staff and shareholders expect nothing less, and they hold us accountable for delivering on that mission.

Twenty percent of our business is owned by a charitable foundation of which several colleagues are trustees — we understand the operational and legal requirements first hand.
