Plant growing inside a light bulb to promote socially responsible investing

Invest in our planet for a more sustainable future.

On April 22, 1970, a modern environmental movement was formed to raise awareness for environmental concerns. Goals were set to reduce pollution, and increase the protection of human health. Today, this massive movement has mobilized over 1 billion individuals and has us all taking some form of action to strive for better living conditions on our planet.

Socially Responsible Investing

We can also action a better way for life on our planet with our investment portfolios. Sustainable investments are designed to make change and promote Environmental Social Governance (ESG) practices. The results are better, greener technologies and more equal workplaces.

When companies put time and energy into building sustainable practices, they build credibility with their stakeholders and they fare well in terms of employee and supplier retention. These better business practices can lead to a higher success rate of delivering better returns.  

In this video, Ryan Husk discusses ESG practices and how it’s possible to align your personal values and what you consider your environmental responsibility with your financial goals.

A More Sustainable Future

A sustainable future looks different to different people. Some might feel more empowered to ensure clean drinking water is available to everyone. Others might feel more drawn to ensuring we have clean, affordable energy. We could all benefit from responsible consumption and production. Or maybe gender equality, peace & justice weighs more heavily for you. Whatever way you wish to celebrate Earth Day this April 22nd, know that you also have options to make a difference with your investment portfolio.
