From a narrow focus on material satisfaction to an economy that deeply values and nurtures broader individual wellbeing

A shift needs to be made to ensure that we deeply value and nurture individual wellbeing for all. This means ensuring that the necessary solutions are in place to grant access to well-functioning and affordable healthcare, care services and facilities for individuals in all conditions and stages of life. This also means creating the conditions for healthy and fulfilling lifestyles, in which people can devote time and energy to their interests and hobbies, nurture their physical and spiritual sides, produce and enjoy arts and culture and cultivate their philosophy of life. Finally, telecommunication and consumer technologies should be at the service of individuals and have human dignity at their core.

This transition focuses on activities that foster individuals’ physical and mental health, as well as self-development, self-expression and healthy relationships with others.

This holistic view forms the base of our investment strategy and is further explained in the Triodos Bank’s vision paper on social inclusion 'Building open and resilient communities for an inclusive society' (PDF).

Triodos Investment Management contributes to the wellbeing transition in several ways.

By financing companies that contribute to improving people's wellbeing, for example through the offering of products and services within healthcare, household and personal care and lifestyle and leisure categories. We play an active role in accelerating the adoption and expansion of sustainable practices.
We capitalise on engagement and active board membership by using our voices to start crucial conversations and leveraging our expertise to advocate for change. We have one-on-one conversations with companies to discuss sustainability topics that are important to us as an impact investor. We do this both on an ad hoc or event driven basis and by following a formal engagement agenda.
Through our lobbying efforts, we push for progressive regulation and institutional arrangements aimed at improving broader individual wellbeing.

Free people

Human and individual rights are respected, amongst others through true gender and racial equality, to empower people in shaping their own life. People autonomously craft lives matching their values, creating opportunity for self-development and self-actualisation.

Healthy people

A positive, holistic view on health underlies both society and the formal healthcare system. A connection between body and mind is widely recognised. Healthy lifestyles are enabled and valued. Ultimately, this leads to resilient humans.

Inspired people

Arts and culture helps people experience a sense of meaning and awareness in the world. A powerful imagination allows people to reflect critically on themselves and their society, enabling them to enact change beyond the realm of immediate possibilities. People can find comfort in inspiration.

Financing the wellbeing transition

We invest in companies that are already well aligned with our vision, or companies that display a clear commitment to becoming more sustainable, but also in smaller, innovative actors that push the business ecosystem in the right direction with their solutions.

We look for companies with relevant activities, such as:

Education and related activities
Healthcare-related products and services
Products and solutions for personal and household hygiene
Childcare and care facilities and initiatives for older people
Products, services, facilities and initiatives for individuals with special needs
Activities in arts, culture and leisure
Faith and philosophy of life initiatives and organisations
Products, services and activities for self-expression
Human-centred technology products and initiatives

Our Impact Equities and Bonds funds invest in listed companies that contribute to this transition with their products and services by fostering individuals’ physical and mental health, as well as self-development, self-expression and healthy relationships with others. Examples are Essity, Powerschool and Sanoma.
