Moneynet promotes a more ethical approach to investing with new ethical investment product guide.
from: BigmouthmediaMoneynet.co.uk, the UK’s most established personal finance consumer information website, has published the latest edition in its series of online product guides to help consumers get to grips with the increasing complexity of personal finance products.
Continuing the success achieved by the previous credit card, mortgage, life insurance and loan guides, Moneynet has issued a new guide to cover the subject of ethical investment. With the number of ethical investors in the UK growing each year alongside public awareness of pollution, fair trade, child labour, arms sales and similar contentious issues, Moneynet aims to ensure consumers can make informed decisions about their finances.
Ethical investing has gone from being a 'fringe' activity - previously seen as the practice of tree-huggers and sandal-wearers - to a going concern that offers clear-conscience alternatives for the full range of financial products including mortgages, bank accounts, utilities, investments and pensions.
Moneynet’s latest guide aims to encourage and help consumers acknowledge and understand “socially responsible investing”, as well as providing enlightenment on the products available. Through information provision and access to ethical financial product providers, consumers can take control over their personal finance situation, making sensible financial decisions with a clear conscience. Moneynet provides comparative information for savings and investments, credit cards, loans, insurance, mortgages and utilities: giving consumers access to practical and ethical choices on the different financial aspects of domestic life.
Richard Brown, Chief Executive of Moneynet.co.uk said “'there is a growing awareness of these issues and we hope that our guide will help to answer some of the questions that are frequently asked. As with all our guides, the Guide to Ethical Investing is designed to help the consumer make the most of their money.'”
There are currently five guides available on the moneynet.co.uk website, covering life insurance, credit cards, mortgages, loans and ethical investment. These are set to complement the core financial comparison services available on Moneynet. Further guides are due to be published later this year.
