Syntrinsic Investment Counsel: Empowering Nonprofits to Make a Difference
Syntrinsic Investment Counsel is an investment firm that specializes in working with nonprofits and philanthropic organizations. The company was founded in 1998 with the mission of helping these organizations achieve their goals through sound financial management and strategic investment planning.
At Syntrinsic, we believe that nonprofits have a unique role to play in society. They are often on the front lines of addressing some of the most pressing social issues facing our communities, from poverty and homelessness to education and healthcare. However, they also face significant challenges when it comes to funding their programs and operations.
That's where Syntrinsic comes in. We work closely with our clients to develop customized investment strategies that align with their mission, values, and long-term goals. Our team of experienced advisors has deep expertise in all aspects of nonprofit investing, from IPS development and asset allocation to reporting and impact investing.
One key area where we excel is impact investing. This approach involves making investments that not only generate financial returns but also create positive social or environmental outcomes. For example, we might invest in companies that are developing innovative solutions for clean energy or affordable housing.
By incorporating impact investments into our clients' portfolios, we help them achieve both their financial objectives as well as their broader social missions. This approach has become increasingly popular among nonprofits as they seek new ways to leverage their resources for maximum impact.
Another area where Syntrinsic stands out is our commitment to transparency and accountability. We understand how important it is for nonprofits to be able to demonstrate the effectiveness of their programs and investments. That's why we provide detailed reporting on performance metrics such as risk-adjusted returns, portfolio diversification, and ESG (environmental, social, governance) factors.
In addition to our core investment services, Syntrinsic also offers a range of educational resources designed specifically for nonprofit leaders. These include webinars on topics such as fiduciary responsibility and socially responsible investing (SRI), as well as white papers on emerging trends in the field.
Overall, Syntrinsic Investment Counsel is dedicated to empowering nonprofits through smart financial management practices that enable them to make a real difference in people's lives. Whether you're looking for help developing an IPS or want guidance on how best to incorporate impact investments into your portfolio strategy – we're here for you every step of the way!
