Across the UK, many LGPS funds are looking for ways to deliver meaningful local impact while still achieving strong, long‑term financial returns. In this case study, we share how Swansea Council is doing exactly that through a collaborative partnership and innovative investment strategy.

We explore: 

  • The process involved in identifying suitable local investment opportunities
  • How they align with the fund's broader local impact strategy
  • The real social impact of the investment alongside attractive long-term returns
