A chance for New Zealand to lead change the world in ‘ethical investing’. As of last year, more than half a billion dollars of New Zealanders’ KiwiSaver and other retail investments were lent to countries on ‘high alert’ for human rights violations. The new paper from Motu Research urges fund managers and industry bodies to lift standards. But what does ‘ethical investing’ mean? And how can you tell how your funds are being used? Today on The Front Page, lead researcher Anne-Marie Brook is with us to break down the paper, and how we might be able to be socially responsible with our investments.
