In days gone by, if you wanted to invest your money in ethical investments, it used to mean having to make a trade-off between your ethical principles and good investment performance. Not anymore! You can now satisfy your ethical leanings with your need for sound investment returns.
Investing for the future has taken on a new meaning in a world of climate emergency, health crisis and growing awareness of how our actions might affect current and future generations. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) concerns now underpin many ethical investment strategies, to minimise harm to the world and its people whilst also generating investment growth.
Ethical investments are ones that incorporate ethical values into the investment process, often known as sustainable and responsible investment (SRI). It gives individuals the power to allocate capital towards companies whose practices and values align with their personal beliefs.
When consumers talk about ethical investing, what they largely mean is putting their money into investments that are responsible and which support the drive for a sustainable world.
Ethical investing originally meant using 'sin screens' to weed out potential investments in industries clients wanted to avoid. This is what is known as 'negative screening', preventing investment in industries such as alcohol, tobacco, gambling, armaments etc; and enabling funds to be selected which excluded industries which investors would prefer to stay clear of.
There are now many different ways to invest positively and proactively to bring about ethically beneficial change. Why not contact us today and see how we can help you develop an ethically focused financial plan that will deliver financial security whilst also helping to protect the world we live in.
We all have a responsibility to protect our world for the benefit of future generations.
Don't just leave it to someone else, play your part in the growing eco revolution.
"It cannot be right in a world of increasing human progress - whether in medicine, space exploration or renewable energy - that so many people are denied the most basic human rights"
