Public companies committed to sustainable innovation are playing a growing role in transforming the global economy.
In the past year, we’ve seen this commitment translated into new thinking that is addressing climate change and the environment, while placing more emphasis on positively impacting the communities in which companies operate.
Veris is proud to announce the release of its 3rd annual Impact Report, highlighting the collective achievements of its clients, the Veris team, and the investment managers we work with.

Linda Pei had a vision. In 1993, she launched the Women’s Equity Mutual Fund, the first U.S. fund investing in companies with positive track records ofhiring, promoting and generously compensating women.
Her fund marked the birth of “gender lens investing” (GLI), which is founded on the premise that investing intentionally for gender balance and equity can generate both financial and social returns.
One of the most rewarding parts of our work at Veris is engaging with thought leaders whose views and initiatives are having a positive impact on the world. We hope you enjoy the Veris Leadership and encourage you to share it.
