Veris Wealth Partners, a financial advisory firm specializing in sustainable and impact investing, has clinched three notable awards in the 2024 WealthBriefing Wealth For Good Awards. The accolades include CEO Pursuing Leadership in Wealth Management, Thought Leadership, and Internal Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion Program, underscoring the firm's contributions to advancing crucial conversations in the investment industry.
The CEO Pursuing Leadership in Wealth Management award honors Veris' CEO Stephanie Cohn Rupp for her exceptional leadership in the sector. The Thought Leadership award recognizes Veris' influential contributions on critical themes such as racial equity, gender-lens investing, and the climate crisis. The Internal Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion Program award highlights Veris' efforts to diversify its team and promote industry-wide discussions on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB), including the development of a framework for selecting third-party investment managers.
"While I'm honored to be recognized by WealthBriefing, all credit goes to our incredible team for helping advance vital conversations in the investment industry," said Cohn Rupp. "Looking back over the past year, I'm especially proud of our team's work in the areas of racial equity investing and DEIB asset manager selection factors. Of course, none of this would be possible without clients who want to align their investments with opportunities to make positive impacts."
The WealthBriefing Wealth For Good Awards celebrate organizations and individuals in the wealth management industry committed to impact, diversity, inclusion, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles.
