Helping advisers strengthen relationships, meet client expectations, and deliver genuine impact through climate and nature philanthropy.
The Global Returns Project was co-founded by a former fund manager. That means everything we do — from our portfolio of charities to our six-monthly reporting — has been designed to meet the expectations of people who think carefully about how they deploy their assets.
GRP is a particularly powerful tool for anyone with a client relationship: philanthropy advisers, wealth managers, private client lawyers, and beyond.
Research is clear: clients increasingly expect their advisers to talk about philanthropy and sustainability alongside wealth and asset allocation. This is especially true for next gen clients and women, two groups set to become some of the most important future wealth holders.
Yet these conversations rarely happen. Charitable giving is often overlooked, and sustainability discussions too often stop at market products with little identifiable impact. Dedicated philanthropy experts are rare — and even fewer specialise in climate and nature.
We make it easy for clients to give to outstanding climate and nature charities — at no cost. These are the conversations clients really want to have. Clients don’t tell friends about their latest investment fund; they talk about the difference they’re making in the world.
For advisers new to philanthropy or sustainability, we provide free CPD-accredited training and practical integration tools. Our Adviser’s Guide to Climate and Nature Philanthropy is a trusted resource you can lean on.
For experienced advisers, we offer flexible, outsourced climate and nature expertise. We can suggest projects or charities tailored to your client’s interests, and our exclusive events give clients the chance to meet leading thinkers in climate and nature.
