The Challenge
Gresham House, a specialist alternative asset manager listed on the London Stock Exchange's Alternative Investment Market (AIM), commissioned a report from Pensions for Purpose on the attitudes of the largest UK pension funds to biodiversity investments.
The perception of institutional investors until that point, was that a lack of choice for biodiversity investments kept them locked out of that market.
Keen to assess where UK asset owners are on their journey of incorporating biodiversity and natural capital, and also to bring their in-house capability and expertise in managing natural capital assets and impact investments to pension fund investors’ attention, Gresham House worked with Pensions for Purpose, and in turn Material Impact, to present where the market currently stands with regard to natural capital-related knowledge and investment.
Our Solution
Working with Pensions for Purpose, Gresham House, and their partners, we selected the most salient talking points from the thought leadership survey and resultant report, helping the client articulate a narrative that was attractive to their target media audience.
We strategically disseminated this special release amongst our extensive journalist network, in what was a competitive news cycle.
The Outcome
This campaign highlighted the fact that Natural capital investments are still in their nascence for the investment industry.
We were able to bring significant media and institutional investor attention to Gresham House's biodiversity investment products, the issue of biodiversity loss and importantly what pension fund investors could do to address this problem.
By sparking substantial lead generation and opening avenues for engaging discussions with prospects, the campaign proved highly beneficial for both Pensions for Purpose and Gresham House.
