The Charity Investment Governance Principles

The Charity Investment Governance Principles (CIGP) are launching early in 2025 and explore best practice in charity investment decision making, reflecting the Charity Commission's CC14 guidance and Charity Governance code.  The Principles are relevant for all investment committee members, trustees and executives involved in investing charitable assets.

The Principles have been created as a collaboration between a number of sector bodies, including the Association of Charitable Foundations (ACF); National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO); Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA); Charities Responsible Investment Network (CRIN); Bates Wells; Farrer & Co; and the Institute of Chartered Accountants for England and Wales (ICAEW). We were pleased to welcome Gail Cunningham, who led the project, to talk through the Principles in more detail.
