Social Investments Program |
Prudential's Social Investments Program makes socially responsible investments in the primary areas of economic development and education. In addition, the program considers investment proposals in the secondary categories of affordable housing, community revitalization, minority entrepreneurship, and community services. Proposed investments must have a clear social purpose. Innovative projects are favored—especially if they build replicable models for solving social problems. The program targets investments that provide the greatest social impact for individuals as well as communities where Prudential has its most significant business presence. Only proposals that do not qualify under mainstream investment guidelines are considered. View the 2005 Social Investments.
The program originates investments for The Prudential Insurance Company of America and The Prudential Foundation. Annually, an average of $50 million of new social investments are authorized for Prudential. And, approximately $10 million of below-market-rate social purpose investments or program-related investments are authorized for The Prudential Foundation. Current investments benefit individuals in more than 600 cities and more than 45 states. Since the program's inception, more than $1.1 billion in equity and debt investments have been provided to non-profit and for-profit ventures.
