What is a certified B Corporation?
Fund Boards Council (FBC) were delighted to become a certified B Corporation (or B Corp) in March 2024.
Verified by B Lab, the not-for-profit behind the B Corp movement, this achievement demonstrates that Fund Boards Council meets high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
To become a certified B Corp, companies must complete a rigorous assessment of the impact of their operations and business model on their internal team, their customers, the community and the environment.
“We are extremely proud to have achieved B Corp status. As an organisation dedicated to advocating high standards of governance in the asset management industry and supporting our corporate members in this capacity, some of whom are also B Corps, it’s an external validation of our high level of service and responsible practices. Additionally, we feel privileged to join the global B Corp community – a respected group of forward-thinking companies reshaping the role business plays in society.”
