Sustainable investment
Our Investment Policy
Igloo is committed to FootprintR, our policy of sustainable investment designed to deliver benefits to our four key stakeholder groups (institutional investors; local community; creative industries; regeneration agencies) by generating economic, environmental, social and financial value in edge of city-centre locations.
Igloo has developed its policy on sustainable investment to cover all of its investment activities. Since 2006, our Sustainable Investment Committee has been advising us and monitoring our progress in the implementation of footprint. This Committee brings together leading figures in the sustainability arena:
- Jonathon Porritt - Founder/Director of Forum for the Future
- Anne Power - Professor of Social Policy, London School of Economics
- Paul King - Chief Executive of the UK Green Building Council
- George Ferguson - Ferguson Mann Architects and past president of RIBA
In February 2011, we were pleased to welcome Nic Marks www.nicmarks.org to the Committee. Nic is a happiness and wellbeing guru, and is known for his work with the New Economics Foundation www.neweconomics.org
Through ground-breaking policies such as this, Igloo is reshaping the investment landscape for urban regeneration.
