What is SRI & ESG?

History

Sustainable, responsible & impact (SRI) investing is an investment discipline that considers environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) criteria to generate long-term comptetitive financial returns while making a positive societal impact. SRI investing is not a new concept. The roots of sustainable and responsible investing date back centuries. Jewish, Christian, and Islamic scriptures suggest avoiding investing in enterprises that profit from products designed to enslave or harm fellow human beings.

Myths

One of the biggest myths is that sustainable investing means sacrificing returns. On the contrary, analysis by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Morgan Stanley Institute for Sustainable Investing, and many others shows that sustainable strategies have often performed in line with or even better than their traditional counterparts, both on an absolute and a risk-adjusted basis, across asset classes and over time.

Impact

Corporations may have either a positive or a negative impact on people, communities, and our natural environment. Today's social issues often become tomorrow's economic problems. We know that money has impact. Investment capital can finance either socially desirable or socially destructive businesses. We can make conscious choices about how our money works in the world.

Marketplace

As of 2016, approximately US$ 8.72 trillion total assets under management in the United States were allocated to SRI strategies. Globally, the United States, Norway, France, Sweden, Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom and Luxembourg dominate the ESG investment fund landscape with the largest total assets under management.

SRI investors comprise individuals, family offices, as well as institutions, such as universities, foundations, pension funds, nonprofit organizations and religious institutions.

How We Make An Impact

We seek to make a positive impact to our planet and to humankind by contributing a portion of our profits to organizations that are on the front lines helping to protect our environment, caring for and building our societies, and campaigning for equal opportunities for all of us and for our children.
