Socially responsible investing (SRI) also sometimes referred to as sustainable investing or ethical investing, is the practice of making investment decisions based not solely on financial consideration but with a social consciousness at work. SRI looks at ethical, environmental and social concerns. SRI is not a new strategy, in fact people have been doing it for years and anyone who has been looking into opportunities lately will see an abundance of different projects.
There is little doubt that we face major global challenges in the decades ahead – global warming, burgeoning demand for resources, transport congestion, trading imbalances, an expanding global population and so on – but these challenges present equally major opportunities for those companies that have the foresight and capability to deliver solutions to these challenges.
In order to make the best picks for the companies you choose to invest your green stocks in, you need to be knowledgeable about the companies and to do thorough research. This can be incredibly time consuming in order the find the right investment.
The key factor which determines whether an investment is a fair deal is the risk vs the reward element. Don’t be blinded by emotion, or sucked in by sales tactics talking about “potential” or “position” or “future growth”… Unless you can quantify the investment’s potential to make money BEFORE you commit, you’re leaving your chances of success up to chance.
Fair Deal Investments (FDI) has built a reputation of only recommending secure investment opportunities that have passed rigorous due diligence procedures and moreover, have a real chance to provide investors with a higher than average return on their investment whilst carrying a low risk factor.
