IA50 List 2022
June 2022
SLM Partners has been selected for the ImpactAssets 50 (IA 50) 2022, featuring the industry’s most impactful managers.
After a rigorous application process, SLM Partners joins the industry’s oldest publicly available, searchable resource of impact investing fund managers. This recognition reflects our team’s dedication and success in aligning financial returns with positive environmental outcomes.
All of our strategies are underpinned by the fundamental belief that we can only achieve truly sustainable financial returns if the underlying natural capital – soils, water, biodiversity – is also thriving. To deliver this, we focus on regenerative agriculture and forestry practices that offer attractive risk-returns, increase climate resiliency and deliver positive impacts for nature.
“The caliber of this year’s IA 50 lists is a product of the rigorous application scoring and analysis process that the IA 50 Review Committee has fine-tuned through the years,” according to Sandra Kartt, Managing Director for Investments at ImpactAssets. “We’re thrilled to foster the continuing growth of these unique, innovative investing approaches addressing critical issues from climate to racial equity and gender equality.”
This year marks the eleventh edition of the IA 50, and comes at the time when investor action on climate change, biodiversity and nature loss is most urgently needed.
