MRTI webinar provides overview of its role in responsible investing

The Committee on Mission Responsibility through Investment (MRTI) held a webinar Friday to provide an overview of its role in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and to highlight the business that it will be bringing to the 226th General Assembly later this month.

PC(USA) celebrates 50 years of Mission Responsibility Through Investment

Let’s celebrate 50 years of MRTI! Half a century ago, Mission Responsibility Through Investment (MRTI) was created in recognition of the church’s unique opportunity to advance its mission faithfully and creatively through the financial resources entrusted to it. MRTI implements the General Assembly’s policies on socially responsible investing (also called faith-based investing) by engaging corporations in which the church owns stock. This year, in recognition of its 50th anniversary, the team worked diligently to create a resource book, “Reflections on 50 Years of the Presbyterian Church as Investor,” to help document what has been done and help future committee members serve effectively.

An engaging approach

A half-hour Facebook Live broadcast highlighting Mission Responsibility Through Investment served to both look back at how socially-responsible corporate engagement efforts are helping to reduce climate change and look ahead at what’s in store during the 225th General Assembly.
