| 'Trustees missing out on 'SRI bond funds |
| Tracy Burton, acsis Senior Investment Analyst, looks at socially responsible investment in bond funds. |  download
|
|
| Socially responsible bond funds |
| SRI bond funds have been around for a decade, yet they remain relatively unknown to many trustees. This is partly because there is a lack of understanding of the benchmarks, costs and risks involved, as well as the appropriate asset allocation. This article by Tracy Burton, acsis senior investment analyst explains these factors on the basis of recent research conducted by acsis. If trustees take the time to understand the principles involved, they need not be concerned about the long-term financial consequences of SRI bond investments. The pursuit of social benefits has not, over time, come at the expense of a weaker bottom line performance and overall it can be concluded that SRI is viable for both private and large institutional bond players. |  download
