We helped BP to organise it's SRI roadshow in 2012.  Here's what Rebecca Collacott of BP said about the experience:

"Mike’s services were invaluable in designing an efficient responsible investor roadshow.  We saved a great deal of time compared with last year, and spoke to more of our shareholders. The feedback we gather is vital to our engagement plans for the year.  I highly recommend enlisting his experience to maximise the usefulness of the roadshow process"

Sustainable Investor is a consultancy that helps companies and investors to:

  • integrate social, environmental and economic themes within 'mainstream' investment analysis
  • maximize the efficiency of their business processes, market involvement and communications

 

I have 15 years of experience as an SRI analyst.

I am currently the developer and editor of SRI-CONNECT – an online research marketplace, professional network & communications hub for SRI research and sustainability professionals.

Before this, I ran the SRI team at Citi for four years.  During this time Citi regularly received top rankings in investor polls for their SRI analysis and also saw widespread support from quoted companies for their ‘investor access programmes’.

Before joining Citi, I established the first SRI research capacity on the sell-side at HSBC Global Equities.  Here I defined the practice of sell-side sustainability research and relationship broking.

My buy-side experience came from five years a specialist SRI analyst at Jupiter Asset Management

SRI-CONNECT is the online global marketplace for SRI research and meeting point for companies, investors and their respective advisors. It provides practical research resources and communications channels to accelerate the inclusion of sustainability factors in 'mainstream' analysis & investment.

The site enables users to:

  • understand developments in SRI and its interface with 'mainstream' investment practice
  • present themselves to the SRI industry & review the sustainability & investment activity of others
  • manage information and relationships with peers, partners, suppliers & customers

20% of the site’s value is free-to-air; 40% requires registration (only available to those with a professional exposure to sustainable investment); 40% requires a modest subscription (which costs less than one day at a conference!)

The site’s key features are:

  • Market Buzz – peer to peer news channel highlighting what’s happening in global SRI
  • Directory – SRI’s Who’s who’ containing profiles of over 5,000 companies, individuals, funds & indices
  • Info & Comment – comprehensive & dynamic analysis of sustainable business & the SRI industry
  • SRI Network – The SRI industry’s communications centre
