Socially Responsible Investment
In Europe, there are several thousands of self-proclaimed Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) funds. However, there is no universal norm that guarantees the extra-financial quality of these funds’ approaches. At BNP Paribas Wealth Management, our Sustainable Investments team’s role is to select the best SRI funds based on extra-financial criteria to create an offering for private clients.
WHAT ARE SUSTAINABLE INVESTMENTS? |
SRI remained a niche market for many years. Today investors demand more responsible investment options to create positive impact and support the most sustainable companies.
Socially Responsible Investment refers to the application of sustainable development principles to financial investments. In addition to financial performance, it aims at supporting activities with a strong social and/or environmental value.
