Generosity-focused fintech firm prepares for growth on the heels of recent ETF launch
SCOTTSDALE, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / June 24, 2021 / Uncommon Giving Corporation today announced the promotion of Eric Rubin to President and CEO of Uncommon Investment Advisors, its SEC-registered investment advisory affiliate. Rubin has worked with Uncommon since 2019 and played a critical role in the launch of its first Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) on the New York Stock Exchange in April 2021. Today, the Uncommon Portfolio Design Core Equity ETF (NYSE Arca:UGCE) has $19,673,381 in net assets.
Themed ETFs and investment products are part of Uncommon Giving's end-to-end financial solution for corporate social responsibility, digital giving by individuals and investing options that align with a multitude of interests and values. Through the company's workplace giving platform UncommonGiving.com, people can discover nonprofits, explore causes and donate to 1.2 million 501(c)(3) charitable organizations from a digital giving wallet - a democratized donor-advised fund which will soon include investment options.
"As the world becomes increasingly connected by technology and awareness for social issues continues to rise, more people are seeking ways to create positive change," said Ron Baldwin, founder and CEO, Uncommon Giving Corporation. "Socially responsible investments and impact investing are becoming more important to people and brands, alike. As we continue to grow solutions for companies and individuals, we believe Uncommon Giving will set itself apart from other providers partly due to our innovative investment products."
Rubin has over 30 years' experience as a financial services executive. In addition to his role as President & CEO of Uncommon Investment Advisors, he serves on the board of Uncommon Charitable Impact, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and chairs its investment committee. Rubin previously served as a consultant to OurCrowd, Israel's most active venture capital firm and was Senior Managing Director of a Unified Managed Account platform.

During his long career, he's held leadership roles at ING Fund Services, Mercantile Trust Company, DST International, First Data Investor Services, Furman Selz and Banc One Investment Advisors. Rubin was selected by the NBA/NBPA to launch the first 401(k) plan for NBA players where he conducted a financial literacy program and ran his own financial planning firm focused on professional athletes. Dedicated to charitable causes, Rubin currently serves as Financial and Planned Giving Coordinator for MirYam Institute in New York City, Chairman of the Board of Give N' Grow Basketball based in Baltimore, and is an Advisory Board member of P3 Israel.
