|
SRI (Socially Responsible Investment) is the selection of companies that perform according to social, environmental, and good governance principles within their field of activity.
The investment universe is composed of companies that have defined their own socially responsible issues and operate so as to master the associated risks.
For the investor, both financial considerations and the extra-financial performance of the company are taken into account. This selection leads to the creation of "thematic funds", e.g. sustainable development funds, green funds, human rights funds, etc.
