UKSIF publishes new guide to socially-responsible investment

A new guide to socially-responsible investment has been published and the authors hope it will encourage greater involvement in this year's National Ethical Investment Week.

UK Sustainable Investment and Finance (UKSIF) is behind the piece, which was launched yesterday (November 1st) at an ceremony hosted by industry members.

From Monday, wealth management advisers will be able to participate in the five-day event, which will offer advice on providing socially-responsible investment services to those with private wealth and others.

Chief executive Penny Shepherd stated morally and ecologically-sound investing is no longer a marginal concern, revealing: "Half of investors are interested in making money and making a difference through their saving and investment decisions, as long as they can do both at the same time."

The event will be a chance for advisers, foundations and trusts, third sector organisations and community groups to collaborate on socially-responsible investment, potentially raising interest and funding for the good of all.  ADNFCR-2318-ID-800211147-ADNFCR
