We manage investments for charities, religious organisations and the public sector. This is all we do. We believe that good investment management is like a well-tended garden, requiring constant attention, planting and pruning.
Founded in 1958, we aim to deliver strong long-term returns and have unmatched experience in providing ethical and responsible investment to charities. We are independently owned by our clients with over £6 billion of assets under management.

This website is for information purposes only and is intended as a general introduction to CCLA and its products. The website content and any products and/or services described within it are subject to change without notice. We do not accept any liability to you, or any third party, for the accuracy, completeness or appropriateness of the information and materials made available on this website and your use of any information or materials is entirely at your own risk provided that nothing contained in this section or elsewhere in these terms shall limit or exclude our liability to you to the extent that such liability is attributable to a breach by us of the FCA's rules, FSMA or any other applicable law.
Any application or investment must only be made on the basis of the relevant investment documents which will be issued to you when you make an enquiry about investing in a CCLA fund, such as, for example, the scheme particulars and terms and conditions. Nothing contained on this website constitutes the provision of investment, tax, legal or other advice.
Persons who do not have professional experience in matters relating to investments are strongly encouraged to consult with a financial adviser before making any investment decision. Any opinions expressed on individual funds, services or products represent our views at the time of preparation and should not be interpreted as a personal recommendation to buy or sell any of the investments that may be referred to.
4. Risk warning
The value of the Funds’ units and/or shares and the income from them can fall as well as rise and an investor may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns.
Please refer to the Funds’ scheme particulars for an overview of the investment risks identified by CCLA and the applicable terms and conditions for investing in the Funds, including rules concerning when sums invested may be realised by the investor. Any estimates of future capital or income returns or details of past performance on this website are for information purposes and are not to be relied on as a guide to future performance.
The investments and investment services referred to on this website may not be suitable for all eligible investors.
As the Funds are not authorised unit trusts within the meaning of FSMA, investments or deposits in the Funds are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
However, unitholders and/or shareholders may be eligible for compensation under FSCS if CCLA cannot meet its obligations. There are limits on who can claim and the amount of compensation available. Further information about FSCS is available at www.fscs.org.uk

9. General
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your information (including personal data), we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to this website; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access. However, CCLA accepts no liability in the unlikely event of a breach of our secure computer servers.
We will use reasonable endeavours to ensure that this website does not contain or promulgate any viruses or other malicious code. However, it is recommended that you should virus check all materials downloaded from this website and regularly check for the presence of viruses and other malicious code. We exclude to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws all liability in connection with any damage or loss caused by computer viruses or other malicious code originating or contracted from this website.
Each of the paragraphs of these Terms of Use operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms of Use, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.
These Terms of Use are governed by English law and are available only in English. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute or claim arising under these Terms of Use.
