UCA Funds Management is the financial arm of the Uniting Church in Australia, Synod of Victoria and Tasmania. Our corporate investors are churches, registered charities and not-for-profit organisations and our individual investors are members of the Uniting Church and socially concerned investors.
Our funds are invested according to the ethical investment guidelines of the Uniting Church in Australia.
Our returns are competitive and compare favourably with other fund managers.
There is one very important difference in what we do. Like other fund managers, we're motivated by the impulse to create wealth for our investors and also for ourselves.
The big difference is where our money goes. We only have one shareholder. The Uniting Church in Australia Property Trust (Victoria). Our mission is to support the work the church does to alleviate human suffering and to contribute to the struggle for social justice. So our profits go to support the disabled, the disadvantaged and the dispossessed within our community.
So no matter whether you're a financial planner exploring philanthropic investment alternatives on behalf of a client, or whether you represent a charity or philanthropic foundation with a corpus to invest, or you are an individual investor on the lookout for competitive returns, the chances are we have a fund that meets your needs.
