Finding the right ethical investment fund for you can sometimes be a challenge. Getting the right advice is key. Most IFAs would have a general understanding of the market for ethical funds and some fund managers have a passing interest in ethical funds.

More experienced advisers and fund managers are more committed and will go further and draw up your ethical profile taking into account your wider ethical objectives to ensure that you invest in the funds that are right for you. Look for IFA’s who are committed to looking for new investment opportunities rather than simply providing it as an add-on to their existing service portfolio. Some IFAs are members of the Ethical Investment Association (http://www.ethicalinvestment.org.uk)
