Uniting Church Investment Committee

The Uniting Church Investment Committee (UCIC) is a sub-committee of the Resources Board, which oversees the investment activities of the Synod entities to ensure they comply with the spirit of the Resources Board mandate.

As well the UCIC ensures consistency of application, wherever appropriate, of investment policy and strategy, portfolio management processes and distribution policy within an appropriate risk management framework.

The UCIC oversees Uniting Fund SA, an activity of the Uniting Church in SA which has been set up to provide investment services for the Uniting Church Community. This allows the Church to maximise the amount of money our community has to achieve its missional priorities.

This is done in a number of ways. Firstly UC Invest provides a quality investment service that seeks to maximise investment returns whilst investing within an approved risk management and ethical investment framework.  As well it generates profits by pooling the community’s funds together and investing in a diversified and large investment portfolio with a long term investment time frame. After capital investments have been repaid with interest, surpluses are used to build up reserves and to make grants and sponsorships to the Uniting Church SA community.
