Diverse Managers Emerging Fund Manager Interest Survey

What makes it so difficult for large asset owners who are deeply committed to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion to align the majority of their assets with their values?

Is there a way to overcome the barriers of small investment teams on the investor side, high AUM barriers for database inclusion, or small admin teams on the asset manager side? 

The Colorado Health Foundation has given Impact Finance Center a grant to find out. 

This Study will survey large asset owners including foundations, family offices, companies, and high net worth individuals to assess the feasibility of setting up a shared-ownership due diligence database of emerging diverse managers. Our steering committee includes representatives of Gary Community Ventures, Mary Reynolds Babcock Foundation, Olamina Fund, The Sapelo Foundation, Sitka Foundation, and Woodforest National Bank, among others. 

Fund managers have already expressed interest in taking part in whatever program results from this work. If you are an emerging diverse fund manager, please fill out this form to stay in the loop on the progress of the study and further activities. This is neither a requirement to nor a promise of later consideration.
