​Ecclesiastical rebrands as EdenTree Investment Management

Today Ecclesiastical Investment Management rebranded to EdenTree Investment Management. The rebrand includes a redesigned website which uses their new visual identity which can be seen at www.edentreeim.com.

Since March 1988, Ecclesiastical Investment Management Limited has been at the forefront of responsible investing. Head of Investments Sue Round launched one of the UK’s first retail ethical investment funds – the Amity UK Fund – over 20 years ago and they now offer a full range of socially responsible Amity screened funds to give clients the opportunity to diversify across asset classes and regions. 

Under its former Ecclesiastical brand EdenTree Investment Management won a large number of high profile industry awards, some of which are highlighted below.

– Moneyfact’s Best ethical investment provider – Ecclesiastical Investment Management Ltd. The fifth consecutive year they won this award, which is voted for by the IFA community

– Lipper Award for Best Mixed Asset Group (Small Category) 

– Andrew Jackson, Fund Manager of the Year (UK Equity Growth Category) – UK Equity Growth Fund

– 2015 European Funds Trophy for Best European Asset Manager with 4 to 7 Funds and also special FUNDCLASS trophy for the Best European Asset Manager with 4 to 7 Funds on a long term basis.

Sue Round, Director of Group Investments and Fund Manager at EdenTree Investment Management, said, “Today marks a major strategic milestone for the company and the rebrand represents our future growth ambitions.

“We will continue to operate an active, value-based approach to stock picking, building on the track record of delivering profit with principles for investors and charities. Responsibility forms the backbone of everything EdenTree does, from our long-term investment approach to our stance on sustainability. Our heritage and extensive experience in responsible investing makes us best placed to lead this area of the market.”
