Our culture

At U Ethical, we are focused on serving the needs of investors – from corporate and institutional, to not-for profits, to individual clients. Whether big or small, our clients trust us to deliver competitive returns while doing the right thing by communities and the planet.

We aim to live out our values of authenticity, progress and impact in the way we work and contribute to our community as well as for our clients. We take bold positions on important issues, and we advocate for those in need.

Corporate governance

U Ethical’s constitution provides for a board comprising between six and nine directors, including a non-executive chair and an executive director.

Its governance structure includes three board committees – audit, risk and compliance; investment; and people and nominations – each of which operates under a charter.

U Ethical also engages an ethical advisory panel, including independent experts on environmental and social justice issues. The panel provides input on ethical considerations as well as contributing to thought leadership.

U Ethical is an Australian Financial Services Licence holder regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
