This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.
Vera Therapeutics Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company whose core business model is the discovery and development of novel pharmaceutical treatments. The development of such therapeutics, particularly in the immunology and inflammatory disease space, inherently requires animal testing to satisfy regulatory safety and efficacy requirements before human clinical trials can begin. This places the company within the broad commercial exploitation of animals for research and product development. While the company’s specific pipeline candidates were not detailed in the gathered evidence, its sector and business model are fundamentally reliant on animal-based preclinical research, a standard but exclusionary practice for bringing new drugs to market.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
