The Purpose Capital Impact Fund achieves RIAA certification and Sustainable Plus Classification

RIAA Certification for Purpose Capital’s First Fund

The Purpose Capital Impact Fund (PCIF), our first fund, is now officially certified by the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA). The Fund achieved classification of “Sustainable Plus” – the highest tier.

This certification has been achieved as we commence fundraising for our second fund, the Purpose Capital Impact Fund 2 (PCIF 2). The intention is that PCIF 2 will be submitted for RIAA certification once deployment of capital is underway. Please contact us to receive information on investing in PCIF 2.

RIAA product certification is a robust process, covering responsible investment processes, ESG integration, product claims, stewardship and engagement, and disclosure. We view this certification as an important recognition of the high standards to which we hold ourselves accountable and the track record we have established.

As one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s most experienced impact investment fund managers, Purpose Capital Limited drives positive social and environmental outcomes through the deployment of impactful investment. You can view the official product listing for Fund 1 on RIAA’s Responsible Returns website.

The Purpose Capital Impact Fund has been certified and classified by the Responsible Investment Association Australasia according to the operational and disclosure practices required under the Responsible Investment Certification Program. See www.responsiblereturns.com.au and RIAA’s Financial Services Guide for details.1

Neither the Certification Symbol nor RIAA recommends to any person that any financial product is a suitable investment or that returns are guaranteed. Because of this, you should consider your own objectives, financial situation and needs and also consider the terms of any product disclosure document before making an investment decision. Certifications are current for 24 months and subject to change at any time.
