What filters are used in the InvestSense ethical investment process?
InvestSense makes a number of considerations when assessing whether an asset is suitable for inclusion in our Better World Portfolios. The focus for all selection criteria is to exclude assets that may have a negative impact on people or planet and to ensure that sustainability and ethical management are at the forefront.
The InvestSense Better World Portfolios are a suite of ethically aware diversified portfolios that combine ethically screened direct Australian equities with a selection of leading Fund Managers andExchange Traded Funds that focus on Ethical, Sustainability and Impact investing.
These portfolios include Fund managers who:
- invest in securities that provide a positive contribution to society or the environment
- are targeting investments that relate to the UN Sustainable Development Goals
- are signatories to the UN Principles of Responsible Investing (PRI) or members of the Responsible Investment Association of Australasia (RIAA) or demonstrate a clear commitment to avoiding securities with negative ESG factors.
