Personal Financial Planning Individual Assignment
Socially responsible investing (SRI) appears to be a growth area in the investment world, yet there are those who think it is not really competing with mainstream investments and as such has no real place in the investment industry. It is suggested that SRI is merely another tool for the investment managers to use to help increase their sales.
