At Riverwater Partners, we’re proud to announce our recent recertification as a Certified B Corp! This achievement marks another chapter in our mission to make the world a better place by growing wealth through sustainable investing.
A Shared Vision for a Better World
Riverwater became Milwaukee’s first registered B Corporation in 2018, and since then, we’ve upheld the principles that drive this global movement—prioritizing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, championing transparency, and holding ourselves accountable to rigorous standards. As Wisconsin’s only investment advisor with B Corp certification (as of today’s date), we strive to set an example of responsible business practices in the investment world.
Why This Matters
Becoming a Certified B Corporation isn’t a one-time achievement. It’s a continuous commitment to improving the impact we have on our stakeholders and the environment. The B Corp recertification process is rigorous, challenging us to evaluate and enhance our practices in social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. By undergoing this process, we hold ourselves to the same high standards we ask of the companies we invest in.
Strengthening Our Community of Like-Minded Leaders
Being part of the B Corp community is more than just a certification; it’s about joining a global movement of leaders determined to make a difference. While one might see other socially responsible firms as competition, we believe that more firms embracing B Corp values helps create a stronger ecosystem for responsible investing. Together, we are stronger and better equipped to drive positive change.
What’s Next?
Our recertification is a continuation of our responsible investing journey. We remain dedicated to pushing boundaries in responsible investing, guiding companies toward greater accountability, and inspiring others to join the B Corp movement. As we look ahead, we continue to support our clients and stakeholders in aligning their financial goals with the values of a better world.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s continue to invest in a future that’s both prosperous and purposeful.
