What is the ACT Collective?

The ACT Collective is a network of professional fund investors and manager researchers integrating corporate culture into investment analysis and shaping the future of due diligence.

What is ACT? 

  • ACT is a Corporate Culture Standard and disclosure framework, designed to create norms and structure for conversations on culture and values and how they support investment practice. It was created by City Hive to address the gap in guidance and structure on culture.

  • In an increasingly crowded marketplace, the Signatory mark publicly demonstrates and understanding that clients need to consider firm culture when assessing risk and values alignment.

  • ACT gives manager researchers and professional fund investors access to structured information and evidence to guide the investment decision making process.

  • Through our ACT Collective, you can also have a stronger voice in demanding transparency and accountability from clients whilst also positively impacting the investment management industry

How can I request data from firms?

  1. Ask asset managers about their ACT Signatory Status and year of signing. You can do this on Door, simply via a status check

  2. Ask for asset manager ACT disclosures via Door. Many are already reporting and this reinforces why they should.
