Certifications in Responsible Investment: Responsible Investment Professional Certification (RIPC)

Sandy Rose, CFA

I help investors find the modern slavery exposure they don’t know they have.

Modern slavery is one of the most financially material ESG risks that developed-market investors aren’t pricing in – and that’s what I work on.

I’m an independent consultant helping investors identify, assess, and act on human rights risks in their portfolios. My work includes modern slavery risk assessment during private equity due diligence, and helping public market investors develop and execute human rights-related proxy voting guidelines.

My background is in investments first, sustainability second. That sequencing matters: I speak the language of fiduciary duty and financial materiality, not advocacy. My goal is always to translate complex human rights realities into frameworks investors can actually use.

If you’re an investor who suspects this is a blind spot in your portfolio, I’d love to connect.
