Partners for the Planet

We work with brilliant partners who are putting the planet at the heart of what they do. Corporate teams use GRP as a Beyond Value Chain Mitigation (BVCM) solution, turning business value into climate and nature impact. Advisers offer our portfolio to clients who want their wealth to make a real difference. Fund managers share a portion of their management fees with our charities, linking financial success directly to environmental restoration. Together, these partnerships show how simple — and powerful — it can be to build green giving into everyday business.

Climate philanthropy helps clients deliver identifiable impact and find effective charities. That’s why Attivo partnered with the Global Returns Project. GRP aligns very well with our idea of progress, discovery and change when
clients require accessible and innovative solutions to ensure their needs and objectives within the ESG and philanthropic spaces are met.

Head of Proposition, Attivo

GRP essentially takes an ‘investment management’ approach to research, selection, due diligence and ongoing reporting in the world of climate philanthropy. This process, supported by subject matter experts on their Technical Advisory Board, means that we have great confidence in the robustness of the charities being supported… We’re delighted to offer GRP to clients as part of our philanthropy offering and think their approach makes great sense for financial planning B Corps.

Dan Atkinson

Head of Technical, Paradigm Norton Financial Planning

Having worked with the Global Returns Project for several years, we’re now looking at how to make charitable giving for the planet a natural part of our clients’ financial journey. Together with GRP, we’re exploring ways for clients to dedicate a portion of their portfolios to climate and nature charities — ideally through automated, regular donations, using solutions like the Transact platform.

GRP’s portfolio complements our offsetting approach by supporting high-impact climate and nature charities. These organisations are tackling the root causes of environmental risk, which aligns with our ambition to go beyond carbon accounting and create lasting value for the communities and environments where we work.

Benjamin Lesser

Head of Design & Innovation, Derwent London

High-quality offsets have their place, but they’re not the whole answer. Supporting climate and nature charities through GRP helps us go further. It’s a practical way to back solutions that restore ecosystems, promote biodiversity, and build resilience for the future. For firms like ours, GRP offers a simple step towards more meaningful climate action.

Matthew Traub

Head of Sustainability, Allies and Morrison

GRP’s selection of best-in-class climate charities deliver positive impact for the planet beyond the capacity of carbon offsetting alone. As a Fund Manager ourselves, we appreciate that GRP takes a ‘fund management’ approach to philanthropy and meticulously selects diverse and high-impact climate charities following thorough due diligence.
