Are you concerned about where your hard earned dollars are being invested? Many investors are now beginning to be more concerned about where their funds are being invested. From emissions variables such as greenhouse gas emissions intensity and potential emissions from fossil fuel reserves to other environmental and social sustainability variables such as land use and biodiversity, toxic spills and releases, operational waste, water management, factory farming, child labour, cluster munitions and landmines, nuclear weapons systems, tobacco, alcohol, gambling and adult entertainment. With socially responsible investing (SRI), investments in companies are emphasised, reduced or excluded based on environmental and sustainability impact, as well as social considerations.
OCW have SRI portfolios available as an option for investors with the historical returns of these portfolio being commensurate to standard portfolios and are still well diversified. If you would like to know more about SRI options for your investments contact one of our Financial Advisers today.
