U Ethical is delighted to welcome Chris Burton to the team as Business Development Manager. With extensive experience in financial services, Chris brings expertise and insight that will enhance our commitment to providing exceptional support for financial advisers.
Erica Hall, Director – Strategy and Distribution said “We’re delighted to welcome Chris to the U Ethical team during such a pivotal time for our growth. His experience in financial services, combined with his genuine passion for aligning investments with values, makes him a valuable addition to our team. I’m confident financial advisers will appreciate his thoughtful approach and support.“
As one of the pioneers in ethical investing, U Ethical has been dedicated to responsible investment since launching our flagship Australian equity strategy in 1986. Over the decades, it has delivered competitive, long-term, risk-adjusted returns. Our Australian Equities trusts are rated by leading research houses and available on a range of platforms, making them accessible to advisers and their clients.
Our commitment to excellence has been recognised through multiple industry awards, including being a three-time back-to-back winner of Money magazine’s Best of the Best Australian Shares ESG Fund. Additionally, the Trusts are certified as Sustainable Plus by the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA) and U Ethical is proud to be both a certified B Corporation and a not-for-profit organisation. This means across our business—investments, operations, and our surplus— we seek to make a meaningful contribution. We call this philosophy “compounding good.”
Chris will play a pivotal role in enhancing the adviser experience, helping financial professionals confidently engage with our approach. We are thrilled to have him on board and look forward to his contribution as we continue to support advisers and their clients.
