CONSCIOUS INVESTING
Are you looking to explore beyond traditional investments?
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing holds different meanings for different people.
While there is no single “right way” to approach ESG investing, we actively manage ESG opportunities and risks, positioning our clients for long-term success.
As investors seek to diversify their portfolios with responsible and sustainable options, they seek to invest in keeping with a moral compass. They seek portfolios that meet their evolving needs without compromising returns.
Have you have heard of conscious investing?
We can guide you through alternative options beyond traditional investments. Consider the following questions to deepen your understanding:
- Do you want your investment activities to reflect your values? For instance, if you oppose arms manufacturing, big tobacco, or fossil fuels, you might prefer not to invest in companies that profit from such activities.
- Have you reviewed your current superannuation investments and found it difficult to identify the companies or sectors you’re invested in? How do you make informed decisions in this scenario?
- Is it possible to invest in more sustainable sectors, such as solar panels, hydro, or bioenergy?
- How can you ensure that an investment product aligns with your values? You may be uncertain and you may have heard that some products labelled as "environmental" might not meet your expectations.
-
While you aim to invest with a social conscience, you also want to maintain a focus on investment performance. Can these two goals coexist?
We are here to help you navigate these considerations and make informed choices that align with your principles and financial goals.
If you would like answers to these questions, Locumsgroup can help:
- Provide you with confidence that it's possible to create synergy between your personal values and investment activities.
- Educate you on a range of ethical investment options, including exposure to specific themes like renewable energy.
- Show you that investment returns don’t need to suffer when it comes to ethical investing. In fact, evidence suggests that investing in this area can positively impact returns.
How can I focus my super towards conscious and ethical investments?
With increased awareness of our impact on the environment, you might be wondering how to make a difference with your investments. The following questions might resonate with you:
- I want my investment activity to reflect my values. I’m opposed to fossil fuels and dislike the idea of investing in businesses that profit from them.
- I’ve reviewed my current super investments and find it difficult to identify the companies or sectors I’m invested in. How do I make informed decisions in this situation?
- I’ve heard it’s possible to exclude fossil fuel exposure, but what about including specific themes I’m interested in?
- How do I know that an investment product is reflecting my wishes? I've heard that some products with an Environmental label might not be what I expected?
- How do I ensure that an investment product aligns with my wishes? I’ve heard that some products labelled as “environmental” might not meet my expectations.
