About | Pablo Berrutti

Pablo Berrutti

I am a passionate and experienced financial services professional, committed to working with others to drive a real shift towards a sustainable, ethical and resilient financial system. I am also a husband, father of two children (and a dog!) and enjoy sport, cooking and brewing beer.

PROFILE

Professionally, I am the senior investment specialist for Stewart Investors, Sustainable Funds Group and founder of Altiorem. I was previously the head of responsible investment Asia Pacific for First Sentier Investors. I am director of the Responsible Investment Association of Australasia, sit on the coordinating working group of the Australian Sustainable Finance Initiative, and am on the Advisory committee of UNSW’s Australian Human Rights Institute.

We are building Altiorem because we believe that to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Climate Agreement, finance must play an important role with people inside and outside the industry advocating for and implementing the change we need. For this to happen the wealth of information which supports sustainable finance needs to be more accessible.

I hope Altiorem helps you in promoting sustainable finance – please let me know how we can make it better.
