Description Edison is an independent, fee-based wealth management firm providing financial planning and discretionary investment management advice. We help individuals, families and trustees grow and create wealth. Our philosophy is simple. Wealth only becomes meaningful when it is directed to help achieve a goal. Our role is to help our clients make their money meaningful by enabling them to give their wealth purpose and direction. Clients say we are straight talking and unpretentious, and our advice is clear and to the point. Edison's culture is one of social responsibility, with a founding principle to make the lives of our clients and our staff better. Approach Our ambition to improve the lives of our clients can be found everywhere at Edison; from our philosophy of ‘people first, money second’, to the investment we make in our team and how we protect the environment we share with others. For clients who care as much about the impact their wealth has on the world as they do about what difference it makes to them and their family, we offer a sustainable investment management service. We have a comprehensive and client-centric approach to assessing, communicating, and implementing sustainable policies and strategies. We started managing sustainable strategies in 2009, at a time when there was little competition or interest from our peers. Since then, we have continued to shape and improve the way we invest, ahead of a growing awareness within the industry. Today, over 40% of our assets are managed sustainably. Underlying investments are mapped against the UN SDGs to hold our portfolios against a long-term framework for sustainable progress. We further monitor the voting and engagement policies and records of fund groups to ensure they are sticking to their word, using their ‘seat at the table’ to drive positive change.
