Proud to be B Corp

In 2023, we achieved B Corp certification and joined the B Corp Movement. Widely recognised as a ‘gold standard’ for social and environmental performance, B Corp certification is a rigorous and comprehensive process overseen by B Lab – a non-profit network dedicated to transforming the global economy to benefit all people, communities and the planet.

To become certified, businesses must demonstrate their performance and credentials across five key areas – Governance, Workers, Community, Environment and Customers – which are measured and evidenced via B Corp’s Impact Assessment platform. B Corps also make a legal commitment by changing their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders, not just shareholders.

The Hymans Robertson Foundation

Every year, we donate 2% of our profits to the Hymans Robertson Foundation. We set up the Foundation to make a difference to the lives of disadvantaged young people and communities in the UK. We offer bursaries and grants, and we’ve also committed to multi-year funding for ten charity partners.

The Foundation’s 10-year goal is to support 10,000 young people into better financial futures. To year-end 2024, we distributed £1.2 million of grant giving.

Could your charity use a health check?

No two charities are the same. Although each is dedicated to a critical cause, their approaches to fundraising and investing can vary dramatically. We identified a growing need to review long-term sustainability in the sector while being cost-conscious. This need led to the development of our Charities Health Check. Based on input from the Third Sector Research Centre, we’ve identified 10 factors that drive charities’ long-term financial sustainability.

Our Charities Health Check service gives you an easy-to-digest summary, showing you how your charity ranks on each factor. We’ll identify any areas that need attention and present a clear plan of action. Read our case study to understand how we helped a large financial group identify and plug the holes in their investment strategy.
