socially responsible investing  

Definition

  • Socially responsible investing (SRI) is an investment strategy that seeks to optimize environmental and/or social benefits as well as financial returns. In addition to financial indicators such as risk, returns, and asset allocation, socially responsible investors look at nonfinancial factors—social impacts, environmental impacts, and issues of corporate governance—of investments that are often an extension of their own personal life views and values.
