INVESTING IN THE FUTURE

摘要

Socially responsible investing (SRI) originated in Europe and remains more developed on the Continent than in the UK or US. In the US especially, where a fund manager could get sued for buying a bond that was not the best value on a purely economical basis, it was harder for SRI to take root. The digital revolution has made the public more aware than it used to be, said Aitken Ross, investment manager, fixed income at Alliance Trust Investments. "People are more aware of the implications of their investments abroad, which makes them feel more responsible and affects how they want to invest."
