Overview

Mission

The church investment group (cig) is a non-profit which works on behalf of episcopal endowments to further christian mission. Cig enables episcopal entities to realize the benefits of investing at scale to achieve strong investment performance and encourages the adoption of environmental, social and governance (esg) investing approaches. Cig works with episcopal endowments to review their mission goals, spending policies and asset allocation, to consider adopting ethical investment policies and integrating esg criteria into investments, and to institute proxy voting.

What it reported doing in 2024

Management of investments for episcopal churches and related church affiliated organizations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
