The Endowments Investing Challenge 2026
Investing for future generations
Submit an investment proposal
We’re looking for proposals for the management of investment funds totalling up to £50 million. The focus of the mandate is long-term impact on future generations. We want our investment to be a bridge to a better economy in the future.
Help us shift the focus from short-term increases in financial value to long-term intentional impact on future generations alongside financial returns.
Aligning capital with values
We’re calling on the investment industry to create a bold portfolio that prioritises long-term positive impacts on future generations, alongside financial returns.
How it works
The Endowments Investing Challenge is a public tender process to select an investment service provider for a mandate of up to £50million.
Six charitable foundations have pooled resources to invest in a portfolio that demonstrates positive impact for future generations.
It culminates in a high-profile event where shortlisted providers present their investment solutions to a live audience of values-led investors and young adults who ask questions and vote on a “people’s choice” winner.
