We handle the complexities of investment management so you can focus on your mission.
The requirements of running an investment function are complex and time-consuming. Many faith-based nonprofit ministries simply do not have the budget, staff or experience to give appropriate attention to this important area of their business.
GuideStone Investment Services (GSIS) offers a combination of investment research and portfolio allocation expertise, comprehensive operational support and alignment of Christian values. By assigning GSIS with the fiduciary responsibility for your institutional investments, your organization can realize the cost efficiencies and enhanced service offerings associated with outsourcing this specialized work — while at the same time allowing your Finance and Accounting team to focus on other essential priorities.

GuideStone Investment Services is not, and is not required to be, registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or any other regulatory body. GuideStone Investment Services is exempt from registration under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 because it is a charitable organization that serves only other charitable organizations. This exemption was part of the Philanthropy Protection Act of 1995, which was passed to facilitate contributions to charitable organizations by codifying certain exemptions from federal securities laws. Although GuideStone Investment Services is accordingly not a Registered Investment Adviser, it remains subject to the anti-fraud provisions of the Advisers Act.
Some private funds and other third-party investments may not be able or willing to implement the faith-based investment policy, and in such instances certain investments made on the Account’s behalf may not adhere to GuideStone’s faith-based investment policy.
