Bringing clarity and transparency to Christian investing.
Clear, independent, ecumenical education and product evaluation for investors, advisors, and institutions.
The need
The growing movement of Christian investing needs trusted guidance.
The number of Christians seeking to align their investments with their faith has grown significantly over the past decade. This growth has led to a broad range of faith-based product offerings. In this dynamic environment, Christians face new and ongoing challenges around the nature, standards, and transparency of Christian investing.
The Christian Investing Council (CIC) was founded by a range of Christian financial industry leaders to help guide the church and the industry through these important developments, enabling stewards to align their investing with the beliefs, character, and mission of the Christian faith.
“The Christian community is called to integrity, moral discernment, and action, seeking God’s kingdom first as it pursues financial returns.”
