Supporting Future Generations through Māori Ethical Indigenous Investing, with Temuera Hall

Be & Think in the House of Trust

How do you reframe your worldview, putting the environment before people, people before profit, and the collective before the individual?

In this episode of Be and Think in the House of Trust, I am listening to Temuera Hall, Portfolio Manager at TAHITO, an indigenous ethical investing organisation.

Applying ancestral Māori knowledge, Tahito follows a set of key principles and intrinsic values around interconnectedness and care, that guide and drive their investment behaviours and decisions.

This is a tough responsibility because ultimately, "we are but descendants of those who have gone before us, and before that of Ranginui (our Sky Father), and Papatūānuku (our Nurturing Earth), and we're to honour this wisdom.

In this episode, Temuera describes how the Māori worldview guides us all through not just a transition but a transformation of the world towards regeneration.
