ONE Investment is a not-for-profit organization focused on providing investment options that support the needs of Ontario’s municipalities.
ONE aims to be the leader in best practices for municipal investment. Our purpose as a not-for-profit is to offer enhanced investment services and to expand municipal capacity for long-term investing and asset management planning. This includes education and training for municipalities with respect to linking investments to funding asset management plans.
ONE was first offered as a program in 1993 by Local Authority Services (LAS), the business services arm of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO), and CHUMS Financing Corp., a subsidiary of the Municipal Finance Officers’ Association of Ontario (MFOA).

The PRI is the world’s leading proponent of responsible investment. It works:
to understand the investment implications of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors;
to support its international network of investor signatories in incorporating these factors into their investment and ownership decisions.
The PRI acts in the long-term interests:
of its signatories;
of the financial markets and economies in which they operate and ultimately of the environment and society as a whole.
The PRI is truly independent. It encourages investors to use responsible investment to enhance returns and better manage risks, but does not operate for its own profit; it engages with global policymakers but is not associated with any government; it is supported by, but not part of, the United Nations.
