The Ethos Foundation was created in 1997 to help Swiss pension funds to invest in a sustainable and responsible manner, taking into account environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria. The aims of the foundation, which are defined in its Charter since 1997, are to promote socially responsible investment (SRI) and to foster a stable and prosperous socio-economic environment for the benefit of present and future civil society. Its members give Ethos considerable negotiating power and influence in advocating ESG best practices among listed companies. To achieve its objectives, the Ethos Foundation created Ethos Services in 2000, which currently employs approx. 40 people in Geneva and Zurich. The company offers institutional and private investors a range of services dedicated to SRI, as well as investment funds and sustainable stock market indices. The Ethos Foundation also offers training courses for members of the pension funds boards or management and investment committees who wish to deepen their knowledge of sustainable finance.
