Ethical investing is where the social and environmental principles
of an investor are taken into consideration when selecting companies
to invest in. Ethical Investments can be found in
the form of Unit Trusts, Investment
Trusts, Pensions and Savings.
With increasing environmental and social concerns, the scope of the
ethical investments market has grown so that you can now screen potential
investment companies to see if their policies and ethics match your
own.
Many investment providers now offer socially responsible funds that
cater for the varying degrees of ethical beliefs, making it easier
to find companies whose principles not only match your own but who
also have a good chance of growth.
Ethical investment allows you to have a say in what your
money is used for as you invest in the companies whose behaviour
you agree with.
Is ethical investing for you?
There are noticeable differences in the investment strategies of
the funds available. It is down to you to choose the fund most suited
to your ethical and financial principles. We suggest seeking independent
financial advice from someone like ourselves to help steer you through
