Ethical investment is not only the right thing to do morally, it also makes financial sense. It minimises risk of litigation from unacceptable activities such as - environmental degredation, human rights atrocities/slavery, and workplace incidents from poor safety standards.
Australian Ethical (AEF) has a proven track record as a trusted, ethical fund manager doing it's due diligence and having very high standards.
IMO, other 'ethical' fund managers bandy the word 'ethical' in the fund's title, but when you research the types of things/companies they invest in, you quickly come to the realisation - what is ethical for one person, is unethical for another.
There is no comparison with the investment standards of AEF and they didn't need this latest code of conduct (below) to do the right thing...
