Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) definition
Full integration of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) analysis with financial analysis in pursuit of enhanced long term returns. It allows investors, businesses and institutions to coherently align their values with their investments.
SRI and ESG can help use the power of money to build the political will by influencing corporations and encouraging environmental gains. As corporations, with their large asset base, become more sustainable; their influence on elected officials can help build the necessary environmental political will.
