Praxis Investment Management Named 2025 Faith-Based Organization of the Year by Environmental Finance

Praxis Investment Management, a company of Everence and a leading faith-based investment manager, was named the global 2025 Faith-Based Organization of the Year by Environmental Finance in its IMPACT Award program. This recognition follows the launch of Praxis Investment Management's two ETFs—Praxis Impact Large Cap Value (PRXV) and Praxis Impact Large Cap Growth (PRXG)—and the release of research titled "Faith-based investing: The conversation clients seek, the value advisors can add." Mark Regier, Vice President of Stewardship Investing, stated that the award recognizes in part the company's 2025 research which revealed gaps in awareness and disconnects in communications between investors and advisors.

"Faith-based investing is about fostering purpose as much as performance, and we're honored to be recognized for our work this year helping advisors meet the growing demand for this strategy from clients," Regier said. Environmental Finance's annual IMPACT Awards recognize the work of impact investors everywhere and highlight best practices across all asset classes and geographies. Winners were selected by an advisory panel consisting of industry experts made up of investors, pension fund managers and insurers, along with the Environmental Finance editorial team.

Benjamin Bailey, Vice President of Investments, expressed pride in continuing to pioneer ways for clients to put their faith in action while pursuing competitive returns. "We're deeply grateful for the trust investors and advisors have placed in Praxis," Bailey said. This marks the third time Praxis has received this recognition, having previously been named Environmental Finance's 2020 Faith-Based Organization of the Year and 2023 Faith-Based Organization of the Year. The award highlights the growing importance of faith-based investing strategies in the financial industry, particularly as investors increasingly seek alignment between their values and investment portfolios.

Praxis's research indicates that many investors want to discuss faith-based approaches with their advisors, but communication gaps often prevent these conversations from occurring effectively. The company's work in developing specialized ETFs and research materials aims to address this disconnect and provide practical tools for both investors and financial professionals. Since 1994, Praxis has offered investment products designed to meet practical needs for everyday investors seeking to steward their assets consistent with their desire to promote positive social and environmental impacts. The company brings a faith-based approach to ETFs, mutual funds, multi-fund portfolio solutions and money market accounts.
