ABOUT US
A pioneer and leader in the social investment industry, Trillium Asset Management Corporation (”Trillium”) is the oldest and largest independent investment management firm in the U.S. solely devoted to sustainable and responsible investing. Since our founding in 1982, clients have chosen Trillium because of our long history of providing competitive investment returns, personalized service, and our deep commitment to advancing environmental sustainability, social justice and human rights through innovative investment, research, and advocacy.
We believe companies with strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) profiles are better managed for the long term, have lower risk profiles, and are positioned to outperform their peers. Our investment philosophy recognizes a mutually reinforcing, not mutually exclusive, relationship between competitive returns and promoting social and economic justice. We engage directly, through shareholder engagement and advocacy, and indirectly, through allocating capital to companies and sectors with positive economic, ecological, and social impact.
Trillium’s impact has extended beyond our own walls, as the Co-Founder of Ceres, the Social Investment Forum, SIRAN, and Open MIC. After nearly three decades of leadership in proactive, change-oriented social investment, we’re proud to stand on the cutting edge of a movement linking financial, social and environmental outcomes as sustainability concepts are embraced across the investment industry and around the world.
