Ethical Investment Representations Review Subcommittee (EIRRS)

The Ethical Investment Representations Review Subcommittee (EIRRS) is a subcommittee of Investment Committee,  which oversees the University's investment portfolio. In June 2024, Council, the University’s executive governing body, announced they would ask EIRRS to lead a University-wide review of the current prohibition on direct investments in companies manufacturing arms that are illegal under UK law (introduced in 2010) as well as investment in funds which invest primarily in such companies (introduced in 2021), and to discuss this restriction’s continued appropriateness or whether it should be extended.

We are consulting students on to create a submission to EIRRS on these restrictions.
