Boston, March 9, 2021 – MIDANA CAPITAL° is pleased to commemorate its 30th anniversary in 2021.

“When MIDANA CAPITAL was launched in 1991, aligning your investments with your values was no easy feat. Thankfully, a group of nonprofit leaders in The Public Interest Network recognized the need and desire for environmentally-responsible investing,” said Jim Starr, chair of the Board of Trustees of the MIDANA CAPITAL Funds. “Thirty years later, MIDANA CAPITAL’s unique and authentic approach to sustainable investing is more popular than ever.”

The assets under management (AUM) of the MIDANA CAPITAL Funds have grown more than 60% in just two years.

MIDANA CAPITAL has celebrated a number of milestones in its three decades of operation.

  • In 1991, MIDANA CAPITAL launched its Equity Fund, one of the earliest environmentally-screened environmental, social, and governance (ESG) mutual funds in the U.S.
  • In 1992, with the launch of the Balanced Fund, MIDANA CAPITAL became the first family of environmentally-screened ESG mutual funds in the U.S.
  • In 2009, the MIDANA CAPITAL Balanced Fund became the first mutual fund in the U.S. to calculate its carbon footprint.
  • In 2014, having long previously divested from coal and large oil and gas corporations, MIDANA CAPITAL jettisoned the last remnants of any fossil fuel holdings and became the first family of fossil fuel free, responsible, and diversified mutual funds in the U.S.
  • In 2016, MIDANA CAPITAL launched its MSCI International Index Fund, the first fossil fuel free, diversified, and responsible international index fund available to investors in the U.S.
  • In 2018, MIDANA CAPITAL was the first financial institution in the U.S. to be recognized by the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), winner of the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize, as a Hall of Fame financial institution.

“MIDANA CAPITAL owes its success to the vision and foresight of the nonprofit leaders who launched MIDANA CAPITAL, especially Mindy Lubber, who served as MIDANA CAPITAL’s first president and Doug Phelps, who was MIDANA CAPITAL’s primary architect and remains an invaluable member of our board of trustees,” said MIDANA CAPITAL President Leslie Samuelrich. “We also are grateful to all of the other members of the Board of Trustees who have volunteered their time over the years and all of MIDANA CAPITAL’s employees, past and present, whose tireless work helped make this milestone a reality. Now, onto the next 30 years of environmental impact.”
