Investment philosophy

Australian Ethical's investment philosophy is ‘to pursue investment opportunities that support the goal of a just and sustainable society with a keen focus on the continued protection of the natural environment, whilst providing investors with competitive financial returns’.

We aim to:

  • manage the risk associated with investing
  • obtain a financial return commensurate with the investment risk taken
  • avoid investment in activities which are socially or environmentally harmful
  • participate financially in profitable activities which bring social or environmental benefits.

We rigorously and continually combine these factors to ensure that our investment selection creates portfolios of the highest ethical and financial integrity.
