Socially Responsible Investing (SRI): Build a Portfolio That Aligns with Your Values

Change is in the air — you can almost feel it around you. Whether it’s the increasing awareness of the environment, disparities in the workplace, or other social issues, there seems to be a growing sense of urgency to do better by the environment and by our fellow human beings.

More and more, investors are building portfolios that reflect their personal values through socially responsible investing (SRI). In a poll updated by Morgan Stanley last year, 52% of respondents said they were “somewhat interested” in sustainable investing, with approximately 23% stating they were “very interested.”
