Man Group supports various charitable initiatives focused on promoting education, which are run primarily through the Man Charitable Trust and the Man US Charitable Foundation.[47]

Man Charitable Trust and the Man US Charitable Foundation

Set up in 1978, The Man Charitable Trust is an independent registered charity that funds small to medium-size charities focusing on literacy and numeracy programmes. It also funds programmes in support of access to education for disadvantaged people. In 2019, Man Group launched the Man US Charitable Foundation to provide funding and volunteering opportunities in the US. In 2021, Man Group donated $4 million to both charities.[47][48]

Oxford-Man Institute

In June 2007 Man launched a joint project with the University of Oxford, the Oxford-Man Institute of Quantitative Finance. Man Group's initial financial commitment to the institute was £13.75 million, one of the largest single donations to a British higher education institution in recent years.[49] In 2016 the Oxford-Man Institute expanded its focus on machine learning and data analytics, becoming part of the University of Oxford's Department of Engineering Science. The development of the OMI's focus creates a hub for machine learning and data analysis at Eagle House, the current home of the OMI and Man AHL's Oxford Research lab.[50]

In December 2019, The University of Oxford and Man Group announced that funding support for the Oxford-Man Institute (OMI) had been agreed for a further five years.[51]

Man and Fideuram - Intesa Sanpaolo Private Banking

In 2023 Man Group established a strategic asset management partnership with Fideuram – Intesa Sanpaolo Private Banking designed to generate innovative new investment opportunities for F-ISPB's clients. The agreement saw Man Group take a 51% interest in Asteria, a Geneva-based, ESG–oriented asset manager, including its existing fund range.[52]

Man and Columbia Centre partnership

In 2023 Man Group announced its partnership with the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment to conduct research addressing how climate impact is defined and measured in fixed income and equity portfolios.[53]
