RESPONSIBLE INVESTING
MAKE MONEY WHILE MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Responsible Investing (RI) is an investment strategy that incorporates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) screening criteria into the selection and management of investments. Now you can feel good about making a difference with the money you're investing. And best of all, you don't need to compromise on performance because companies with strategic ESG practices often achieve better financial results over the long term.
THREE APPROACHES TO MANAGING RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENTS

Divest out of companies that provide products and services that have a negative impact on society.
Screen the Company
Select companies that demonstrate good ESG practices and have a positive impact on society.
Corporate Engagement
Use your voting rights to encourage positive change in the companies you're investing in.
