Global Returns Project

Financial advisers: join us on 1st October for a CPD-eligible discussion of environmental philanthropy! Register for free 👉 https://lnkd.in/dXaaRvcf Clients care about philanthropy and sustainability. But many financial advisers are missing vital opportunities to meet client demand and grow their business – all while accelerating incredible solutions to the environmental emergencies we face. Join us for an evening of data-driven discussion co-hosted by the Global Returns Project, Pro Bono Economics, the Personal Finance Society and UKSIF's Good Money Week. Jack Chellman will offer an evidence-based overview of why advisers should connect clients with climate and nature charities as a part of normal financial planning. Then a panel of industry experts including Roy Coulson (Attivo ), Nicole Sykes and George King IV (MASECO Private Wealth), will explore the commercial advantages of embracing environmental philanthropy within financial advice. Attendees will receive one hour of CPD via the PFS. Register for free here 👉 https://lnkd.in/dXaaRvcf

The Brazilian Amazon alone produces 20% of the world’s oxygen and 16% of its freshwater. But in the past fifty years, deforestation has claimed one-fifth of forest cover in Brazil. How can we defend complex ecosystems enmeshed in complex politics? That’s where high-impact charities come in. Join us on 11th July at 6pm to learn about the diverse and complementary strategies our charities have adopted to tackle the Climate Crisis in Brazil.   Learn more and book your free tickets at the link below: 👉 https://lnkd.in/dkWGYTXN
