The Socially Responsible Investment team believe that those companies which are most likely to grow consistently over the next few decades are those that are promoting or benefiting from sustainable economic development. Thus the team actively seek out companies which have or are taking steps to providing solutions to environmental and social problems. Companies that qualify on this basis, are then assessed as potential investments, which is guided by the house macroeconomic view, and the company's considerable research base. There are however, a number of areas which are strictly out of bounds. These include:
- Manufacture of cigarettes and other tobacco products.
- Ownership, management or construction of nuclear power stations.
- Manufacture or marketing of arnaments, including weapons, weapon platforms and munitions.
- Any company whose principal business involves gambling.
- Any company deriving a significant proportion of their turnover from the manufacture and sale of alcohol.
