About us

The Global Returns Project is a UK registered charity helping individuals, wealth managers, asset managers and businesses embrace the regenerative future of finance. We make it easy to embed a contribution to our Global Returns Portfolio of climate not-for-profits into any financial strategy.
Too often, sustainability strategies merely minimise adverse effects on the environment. Contributing to our Portfolio directly regenerates the biosphere on which our economies depend.
