Ethinvest has a new General Manager – meet Matthew Moore
Ethinvest has appointed Matthew Moore as our new General Manager to strengthen our leadership team to meet growing demand for true-to-label ethical and impact investments. Moore is an industry leader bringing extensive experience in ethical investing, fund development and portfolio management who has managed portfolios of up to $1.6 billion at Uniting Financial Services and led the $30 billion in assets at Australian Unity Wealth and Capital Markets.
Managing Director Trevor Thomas welcomed Moore’s appointment, saying “The Ethinvest team is thrilled to have Matthew on board as we continue expanding our ethical and impact investment services. With Ethinvest now overseeing $1.3 billion in ethically screened and impact assets and a managed portfolio service exceeding $100 million, Matthew’s expertise will be invaluable in driving our next phase of growth.”
Moore will take over from Fiona Thomas, who is moving back to a full-time advising role with Ethinvest. He is based in Ethinvest’s Sydney office and is looking forward to meeting our clients there and around Australia.
As you know, Ethinvest was founded in 1989 and was Australia’s first 100% ethical investment and advice firm and has since played a key role in shaping the responsible investment landscape. We played a key role in the formation of the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA), the Ethical Advisers’ Co-op and Australian Impact Investments (AII). Philanthropy is and has always been a key part of our business with over 30% of our annual profits donated to the Ethinvest Foundation and the Community Impact Foundation, the latter a Public Ancillary Funds managing Giving Funds for over 85 staff, clients and friends of Ethinvest.
We look forward to introducing you to Matthew as he takes up his Ethinvest reins.
