Domini Wins Thought Leadership Award at 2026 Asset Management STAR Awards

Domini Impact Investments is honored to share that we have been named the winner of Thought Leadership: ESG / Sustainable Investing in the Asset Management Overall category at the 2026 Asset Management STAR Awards North America. Winners were announced on October 19, 2026, at the awards ceremony in Boston.

Developed by FT Live, Ignites, and FundFire in partnership with the Investment Management Education Alliance (IMEA), the Asset Management STAR Awards build on nearly 30 years of IMEA’s STAR Awards legacy, recognizing excellence in investment management communications, education, and engagement. According to FT Live, the Thought Leadership: ESG / Sustainable Investing award recognizes credible and impactful ESG and sustainable investing thought leadership, judged on transparency and data integrity, substance over marketing claims, and relevance to investment outcomes and the intended audience.

Since the beginning, Domini has been guided by a simple idea: that the way we invest shapes the world we live in. Our thought leadership is grounded in the belief that informed investors are empowered investors. Our winning entry featured the Domini 2025 Impact Report, which details how our impact investment standards, proprietary research, and active ownership seek to put investors’ dollars to work on issues ranging from climate action and biodiversity to workers’ rights and broader access to economic opportunity. The report documents more than 200 company and public policy engagements in 2025 and votes on over 7,000 proposals at nearly 500 shareholder meetings. Through this work, we aim to give advisors and investors clear, rigorous, and honest information about how their capital is at work in the world.

“We’re deeply honored to receive this recognition. For more than three decades, we’ve worked to show that sustainable investing is a discipline that deserves the same rigor, transparency, and accountability as any other. At a time when the conversation around ESG has grown louder and more polarized, we believe investors deserve substance — clear thinking grounded in evidence about how their investments affect people and the planet.”

— Carole Laible, CEO of Domini Impact Investments

Congratulations to our fellow honorees, and thank you to FT Live, Ignites, FundFire, IMEA, and the judging panel for continuing to spotlight the work that moves our industry forward

About this recognition. Domini Impact Investments LLC was named the winner of Thought Leadership: ESG / Sustainable Investing in the Asset Management Overall category of the 2026 Asset Management STAR Awards North America. FT Live notified Domini of its selection as a winner on August 10, 2026, and the recognition was publicly announced on October 19, 2026. The recognition is based on activity during the period of March 2025 – March 2026. The Asset Management STAR Awards North America were developed by FT Live, Ignites, and FundFire in partnership with the Investment Management Education Alliance (IMEA), which created the awards, established the category criteria, and administered the judging; none of these organizations is affiliated with Domini or is a Domini client.

Compensation. The entry was submitted by Domini. There is no fee to submit an entry, and Domini did not pay any fee to enter, be considered for, or be selected as a winner of this recognition. Domini was notified of its selection as a winner on August 10, 2026, before making any purchase from FT Live. On September 15, 2026, Domini purchased the following from FT Live, for a total of $8,800: (1) three Individual Attendance tickets to the October 19, 2026 awards ceremony at $1,950 each ($5,850 total), which include the reception, gala dinner, post-awards reception, and event photography; and (2) one Winner Assets Package for $2,950, which includes an official winner trophy, and the static and animated winner logo shown at the top of this post. These purchases were not required to receive the recognition, were made only after the winner selection had been made and communicated to Domini, and had no bearing on the judging or outcome. Because the Winner Assets Package relates to Domini’s use of this recognition, these purchases constitute compensation provided by Domini in connection with this recognition and are disclosed here.

Methodology, as published by FT Live. The awards were open to asset managers and service providers operating in or serving clients in North America with at least three years of operating in the region, and entries were required to reflect activity during the period of March 2025 – March 2026. Entries were due June 12, 2026, and no fee was charged to enter. Firms could enter up to five categories. Each submission included an entry statement and goals and an outcome and results statement of no more than 350 words each, along with up to three supporting assets and evidence such as performance metrics, innovation details, client outcomes, or relevant KPIs. Entries were evaluated within relevant peer groupings, which may include segmentation by asset class, investment strategy, and/or firm size. Entries were judged by a panel of investment management leaders and other industry experts on performance and results, innovation and creativity, strategy and execution, and engagement and impact. The Thought Leadership: ESG / Sustainable Investing category was judged on transparency and data integrity, substance over marketing claims, and relevance to investment outcomes and target buyer (retail investor versus institutional).
