Investments in all the Australian Ethical Trusts and Superannuation strategies are selected in simultaneous pursuit of a just and sustainable society, protection of the natural environment and provision of a competitive financial return to members. These objectives are founded upon the Australian Ethical Charter – the principles guiding the assembly of our premier portfolio of over 100 broadly based investments. The Charter combines twelve facets of corporate activity to be sought out and actively supported. This provides a positive balance to eleven facets which it lists as activities to be avoided. The Charter is incorporated into the Trusts’ Constitution.
