Today’s investment markets have seen the introduction of a plethora of new socially responsible investment options many which are labelled as ethical funds and ethical mutual funds. For those who wish to take ethical investment one stage further, one option is to consider an investment in green mutual funds or other green fund based investments.

Green Investments: How do Green Mutual Funds Differ from Ethical Mutual Funds?

On the one hand, ethical funds may be seen funds which to a large extent focus upon investing in a range of stocks and shares for which the pool of investments has specific exclusions. Whilst exclusions are specific to the individual fund, common exclusions include companies participating exploitative labour, those producing health damaging products and businesses with a poor environmental record.
