R. C. Brown Investment Management PLC (RCBIM) was founded in 1990 and is based in Bristol. The organisation emanated from the in-house team that managed the DRG Pension Fund.

Today the organisation manages around £200m for a wide range of clients, including charities, pension funds, trusts and private clients.

Ethical investing has become something of a specialism, where we have benefited from the ethical criteria and screening of our largest client, the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust. We also welcome unconstrained portfolios.

Our organisation is truly independent, in that it is majority owned by its current and former employees. The only outside shareholder is the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, which has shares and options over a significant minority interest.

Although the firm has historically catered for clients with assets in excess of £2million, we have recently expanded our investment offering in the private client arena to include clients with assets of £25,000 and above.
