Ethical investment

continued from page 2
Pensions
  • Company schemes
    Trustees of occupational schemes and administrators of local authority schemes are now required to publish their stance on socially responsible investment. Your scheme may offer an ethical alternative to the main fund.

  • Private pensions
    Financial advisers that specialise in SRI will give advice on which ethical funds are suitable for inclusion in a personal pension plan or stakeholder pension.

    Mortgages
    The Ecology Building Society (call 01535 635933 or visit www.ecology.co.uk) lends savers' money to people wishing to buy, convert or build environmentally sound properties.

    The Norwich & Peterborough Building Society (call 01733 372372 or visit www.npbs.co.uk) will also lend money to buy 'green' homes.

    Insurance
