Ethical Investment

Our Approach

The Christian Bible teaches us how to live, including investment and the management of money. The terms “ethical investing” and “sustainable investing” have a broad range of definitions. We understand “Ethical investments” to be investments that are consistent with standards and values set by the Bible and by Jesus Christ himself.

The Bible teaches us responsible and sustainable investing. This flows out of the declaration that God himself is the creator and the ultimate owner of all that we see, (Ps 24:1, Job 41:11) and has charged us with the responsibility of being stewards on His behalf (Gen 1:26-28, Matt 25:20-21).

In measuring investment suitability against these Biblical standards and values, we believe that over the long term our investments will achieve sustainable returns for investors. We also believe that we have a responsibility to manage our money in line with these principles and to make a difference in the society and communities in which we live.
