Aside from fossil fuels, what other ethical screens are applied?

The investment manager takes a holistic approach to investing that covers a wide range of ethical issues. The screens applied to investments aim to avoid companies or activities that cause social or environmental harm, such as detention centres, live animal export, tobacco, and armaments, to name a few. This is known as 'negatively screening' companies.Further to this, the investment manager also seeks out positive investments in industries that provide benefits for the environment, society and the economy. These investments include renewable energy and energy efficiency, water and resource conservation, healthcare, education, electric transport, green infrastructure and more. This is called 'positive screening.'

Money is powerful, and by using positive and negative screens it’s possible to invest in a way that’s aligned with a future worth retiring into.
