Why charities partner with us

  • Our focus on performance and service has helped us become one of the UK’s leading charity fund managers, with discretionary clients and investors in Newton-managed funds spanning the broad spectrum of charitable causes.

Pooled investment services for charities

  • A growing trend among charity investors

    A growing number of investors are opting for a pooled approach owing to, among other reasons, the ease of administration, the simple process of adding and removing money, and lower management costs.


    What do we offer?

    We offer a large variety of pooled solutions to meet a broad range of investment objectives, including those focused on long-term income and growth generation, responsible investing, and also lower-volatility absolute-return strategies.
  • Outdoors, Plant, Rug
  • Envelope, Mail
    Charity-specific funds
    Several of our funds have applicable tax advantages
  • Symbol, Lawn Mower, Tool
    Ethical exclusions
    None of our charity-focused investment funds invest in companies that derive more than 10% turnover from tobacco production
  • Symbol, Emblem, Astronomy
    ESG integration
    Financial considerations of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are built into all the pooled solutions we offer to charities
  • Tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each client and may be subject to change in the future. Newton is not a tax expert and independent tax advice should be sought.

Discretionary services for charities

  • For charities with more complex requirements

    Segregated portfolios are managed under a discretionary service. This means that we take on responsibility for buying and selling holdings within the portfolio. As with our pooled funds, all investment activity would take place within our global thematic investment framework


    What are the key features of the Newton discretionary service?

    – Bespoke portfolios designed to meet specific objectives
    – Direct access to allocated charity specialists
    – Income planning
    – Peer group and tailored benchmarks
    – Adherence to asset allocation or ethical restrictions
  • Landscape, Nature, Outdoors

A range of strategies for charity investors
