WHEB is a specialist boutique asset manager dedicated exclusively to impact investing in listed equities. Established in 2008, WHEB’s investment strategy focuses on companies whose products and services address critical sustainability challenges. This approach is organised around nine investment themes: Cleaner Energy, Education, Environmental Services, Health, Resource Efficiency, Safety, Sustainable Transport, Water Management, and Well-being.
In 2025, WHEB was acquired by Foresight Group, an investment manager providing diverse investment solutions aimed at reducing carbon emissions and supporting sustainable growth.
WHEB’s mission is “To advance sustainability and create prosperity through positive impact investments.” This mission is underpinned by five core values that guide the company’s culture and operations, ensuring alignment with their purpose and identity.
The firm’s investment strategy involves a single global mid-cap equity approach, investing in listed companies that provide solutions to key sustainability challenges. As active investors, WHEB engages with portfolio companies and the broader financial system to support and accelerate high standards in sustainable investing.
WHEB offers various funds tailored to different investor types, including the FP WHEB Sustainability Impact Fund (OEIC) for UK investors and the WHEB Sustainable Impact Fund (ICAV) for UK and European investors. These funds enable investors to participate in a strategy that aligns with their sustainability objectives.
To provide transparency and measure the positive impact of their investments, WHEB has developed bespoke tools such as an impact calculator. This tool illustrates the underlying positive impact that companies in their investment portfolio help create, allowing investors to see the tangible benefits associated with their investments.
The WHEB team comprises experienced practitioners in impact investing within listed equity markets. Their collective expertise combines deep investment knowledge with a passion for delivering positive impact and a commitment to fostering strong, long-term relationships with clients.
As a certified B Corporation since 2016, WHEB has been recognised multiple times with the ‘Best for the World’ award, reflecting its commitment to high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
Through its focused investment strategy and active engagement, WHEB aims to contribute meaningfully to the transition towards a zero-carbon and more sustainable global economy.
