Ethical Advisers' Co-op

Who are we?

The Ethical Advisers Co-operative (EAC) was first established in 2011 by a dedicated group of financial advisers who recognised the need to represent and advocate on behalf of ethical and sustainable investment advice within Australia, a need that remains to this day. 

Since those early days, the Co-operative has grown to a membership of over 40 advisers, all of whom operate within ethically focused Financial Planning practices around Australia, collectively managing over $2 Billion of ethical investor's money.

A not-for-profit organisation, the Co-op has built an outstanding reputation as a vocal representative on behalf of those advisers and investors seeking ethical alternatives and through their active participation within the investment industry, the Co-Op has worked alongside major organisations promoting sustainability and ethical advice, such as; the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA), 350.org, ACCR and Market Forces. ​

The primary objective for Co-Op members has been to help expand awareness of the benefits of ethical investing and to provide guidance to those investors seeking to adopt and implement investment strategies that align with their personal values. Currently, EAC advisers assist over 3,300 Australians to make the best of their financial position while pursuing ethical outcomes. Their advice continues to assist clients in achieving strong, sustainable returns while encouraging the responsible allocation of capital within global markets.
​
Co-Op Advisers have been in the vanguard of ethical investing both within Australia and internationally and have helped develop some of the most innovative ethical investment solutions to help to achieve your financial goals while not compromising your personal values.

Our highly qualified members regularly advise on topics such as; personal investment, family trusts, charities, not for profits, philanthropic trusts, self-managed super funds, co-operatives and ethical superannuation investing.

The board members which help to realise these benefits are depicted below. To contact any of the Co-op's members, click the 'Find An Adviser' tab or fill out the 'Contact Us' form.
