Purpose Investments Announces Termination of Three Investment Funds

TORONTO, July 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Purpose Investments Inc. ('Purpose Investments') announced today its decision to terminate StoneCastle Equity Growth Fund and StoneCastle Income Growth Fund (each, a 'StoneCastle Fund' and together, the 'StoneCastle Funds') at the close of business on or about September 29, 2025 (the 'StoneCastle Funds' Termination Date'). Effective immediately, each StoneCastle Fund is closed to new purchases. Purpose Investments also announced its decision to terminate PK Core Fund effective as of the close of business today. PK Core Fund currently has no unitholders and is closed to new purchases. StoneCastle Funds Purpose Investments regularly reviews its fund offerings to ensure each offering is appropriately scaled, cost-effective, and economically viable for investors, while continually enhancing our fund platform to better serve investors. As part of its latest review, a decision was made to terminate the StoneCastle Funds due to their relatively small size, which has made it challenging to manage the StoneCastle Funds efficiently in accordance with their stated investment objectives. Holders of Series A and Series F shares of either StoneCastle Fund (collectively, the 'Shares') will have the option to redeem their Shares at net asset value on or prior to September 24, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. (EDT). No fees or redemption charges will apply. All Shares not redeemed prior to 4:00 p.m. (EDT) on the Termination Date will be automatically redeemed at net asset value, with the proceeds either deposited into the shareholder's account or sent via cheque mailed directly to the shareholder, dealer, nominee, or intermediary, as applicable. If required, a final distribution for each StoneCastle Fund will occur on or about the StoneCastle Funds' Termination Date. Shareholders will be sent a written notice regarding the termination of the StoneCastle Funds. There may be tax implications for shareholders with respect to any disposition of Shares. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to contact their financial advisor to discuss the financial and tax implications associated with a redemption of Shares and the termination of the StoneCastle Funds.

Real Leadership Starts With Purpose

Dave Wagner is President & CEO of Everbridge, which helps to keep people safe and organizations running. In business, we talk a lot about purpose. It shows up on walls, websites and in investor decks. It shapes our values and drives our mission statements. But too often, purpose is treated like a slogan—something you reference, not something you rely on. The truth is, purpose only matters when it's lived. In my experience, the most powerful expressions of purpose don't happen in presentations or offsites. They happen in the quiet, unscripted moments when someone chooses to step up. Not because they're told to, but because it's who they are. Not long ago, we received a message from a longtime customer. He wasn't writing about a product issue or a support ticket. He was writing to thank one of our team members for stepping in during a moment of personal crisis. This wasn't about implementation timelines or system uptime. It was about compassion, presence and leadership during a time of deep personal need. That moment had nothing to do with contracts or technology, but it had everything to do with purpose. I share this not as a corporate anecdote, but as a leadership lesson. Because in a world where disruption is constant—where cyberattacks, extreme weather, geopolitical instability and supply chain shocks are reshaping how we operate—leaders are being forced to make faster, higher-stakes decisions than ever before. In that environment, strategy is important and technology is essential, but purpose is what keeps your people aligned when the playbook runs out. Purpose is what builds resilience. When I speak to other CEOs, I often hear the same concerns: How do we keep our teams engaged? How do we adapt to change? How do we stay focused through uncertainty? My answer often starts with purpose. Not as a vague ideal, but as a practical tool for resilience. One effective way I've found this can be encouraged is through personal purpose statements. Ask people to reflect on the moments when they've felt most proud, and then articulate the values and motivations behind those experiences. It's a simple but powerful step, because when someone knows why they do the work, they're far more equipped to navigate how to do it, especially under pressure. Purpose empowers people to act with autonomy, even when direction is limited. It encourages collaboration over silos and reduces friction during times of stress. Purpose also builds trust, internally and externally. Customers don't just buy what you make—they believe in what you stand for. And employees, especially today's workforce, want to feel connected to something larger than output or quarterly goals. They want to know their work matters. Purpose doesn't replace performance—it drives it. There's a misconception that purpose is somehow 'soft' or that it comes at the expense of performance. I believe the opposite is true. Purpose clarifies priorities. It helps leaders make faster, more consistent decisions, and it motivates teams to go further, especially when the stakes are high. At Everbridge, for example, our purpose is to help organizations manage critical events and protect lives. It's why we exist. And in our world, the difference between a timely response and a delayed one can be measured in lives saved. That weight comes with responsibility, but it also inspires action. I see it in how our teams show up for customers and how we partner with governments and enterprises to prepare for the unexpected. I saw it most clearly in that customer note from a customer thanking one of our team members for showing up during one of life's most difficult moments. Leading with purpose starts at the top. If you're a leader reading this, I'd offer this reflection: Does your organization know its purpose? Not the words on your website—the real purpose. The one that shows up in how you hire, how you recognize people and how you lead in moments of uncertainty. And more importantly: are you living it? I'd suggest leaders should even go a step further, challenged to create their own personal purpose statements—clear, human answers to questions like 'What do I want to be known for?' and 'When do I feel most alive at work?' When leaders can name their purpose, they can lead from it. If your team sees that you prioritize what matters, even when it's inconvenient, they'll follow. If they see you cut corners or treat purpose as optional, they'll do the same. In my view, the best leaders today are the ones who can help teams stay focused amid distraction, lead with values when there's pressure and return to purpose when things go sideways. Purpose is a long game. You don't build a purpose-driven culture overnight. It takes time, consistency and trust. And that return on investment shows up in how your teams collaborate, in customer loyalty and in performance. Sometimes purpose shows up in moments you never expected, when someone takes action not because they have to, but because they believe in what you're building together. That's when you know your purpose is real and your organization is ready for anything. Forbes Technology Council is an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs and technology executives.

Why business schools need to teach character development

Programs to help students discern their vocation or calling are gaining prominence in higher education. According to a 2019 Bates/Gallup poll, 80% of college graduates want a sense of purpose from their work. In addition, a 2023 survey found that 50% of Generation Z and millennial employees in the U.K. and U.S. have resigned from a job because the values of the company did not align with their own. These sentiments are also found in today's business school students, as Gen Z is demanding that course content reflect the changes in society, from diversity and inclusion to sustainability and poverty. According to the Financial Times, 'there may never have been a more demanding cohort.' And yet, business schools have been slower than other schools to respond, leading to calls ranging from transforming business education to demolishing it. What are business schools creating? Historically, studies have shown that business school applicants have scored higher than their peers on the ' dark triad' traits of narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism. These traits can manifest themselves in a tendency toward cunning, scheming and, at times, unscrupulous behavior. Over the course of their degree program, other studies have found that business school environments can amplify those preexisting tendencies while enhancing a concern for what others think of them. And these tendencies stick after graduation. One study examined 9,900 U.S. publicly listed firms and separated the sample by those run by managers who went to business school and those whose managers did not. While they found no discernible difference in sales or profits between the two samples, they found that labor wages were cut 6% over five years at companies run by managers who went to business school, while managers with no business degree shared profits with their workers. The study concludes that this is the result ' of practices and values acquired in business education.' But there are signs that this may be changing. Questioning value Today, many are questioning the value of the MBA. Those who have decided it is worth the high cost either complain of its lack of rigor, relevance and critical thinking or use it merely for access to networks for salary enhancement, treating classroom learning as less important than attending recruiting events and social activities. Layered onto this uncertain state of affairs, generative artificial intelligence is fundamentally altering the education landscape, threatening future career prospects and short-circuiting the student's education by doing their research and writing for them. This is concerning because of the outsized role that business leaders play in today's society: allocating capital, developing and deploying new technologies and influencing political and social debates. At times, this role is a positive one, but not always. Distrust follows that uncertainty. Only 16% of Americans had a 'great deal' or 'quite a lot' of confidence in corporations, while 51% of Americans between 18 and 29 hold a dim view of capitalism. Facing this reality, business educators are beginning to reexamine how to nurture business leaders who view business not only as a means to making money but also as a vehicle in service to society. Proponents such as Harry Lewis, former dean of Harvard College; Derek Bok, former president of Harvard University; Harold Shapiro, former president of Princeton University; and Anthony Kronman, former dean of the Yale Law School, describe this effort as a return to the original focus of a college education. Not ethics, but character formation Business schools have often included ethics courses in their curriculum, often with limited success. What some schools are experimenting with is character formation. As part of this experimentation is the development of a coherent moral culture that lies within the course curriculum but also within the cocurricular programming, cultural events, seminars and independent studies that shape students' worldviews; the selection, socialization, training and reward systems for students, staff and faculty; and other aspects that shape students' formation. Stanford's Bill Damon, one of the leading scholars on helping students develop a sense of purpose in life, describes a revised role for faculty in this effort, one of creating the fertile conditions for students to find meaning and purpose on their own. I use this approach in my course on vocation discernment in business, shifting from a more traditional academic style to one that is more developmental. This is relational teaching that artificial intelligence cannot do. It involves bringing the whole person into the education process, inspiring hearts as much as engaging heads to form competent leaders who possess character, judgment and wisdom. It allows an examination of both the how and the why of business, challenging students to consider what kind of business leader they aspire to be and what kind of legacy they wish to establish. It would mark a return to the original focus of early business schools, which, as Rakesh Khurana, a professor of sociology at Harvard, calls out in his book ' From Higher Aims to Hired Hands: The Social Transformation of American Business Schools and the Unfulfilled Promise of Management as a Profession,' was to train managers in the same vocational way we train doctors 'to seek the higher aims of commerce in service to society.' Reshaping business education Institute for Social Concerns and Bates College's Center for Purposeful Work and courses such as Stanford University's Designing Your Life and the University of Michigan's Management as a Calling. These are but a few examples of a growing movement. So, the building blocks are there to draw from. The student demand is waiting to be met. All that is needed is for more business schools to respond.
