Explainers

Brendan Doggett (Sharesies’ AU Country Manager) is joined by Cameron Gleeson (BetaShares’ Senior Investment Strategist) and Karen Trau (Perpetual’s Senior Product Manager, Listed and Direct) to chat about ethical investing.

Demand appears to be growing rapidly for ethical investments, and the supply of options is ramping up to match. But with so many options now at the table, how do you make sure your investment is doing what it says on the tin?  

Across an hour, Brendan (Sharesies’ AU Country Manager) is joined by Cameron Gleeson (BetaShares’ Senior Investment Strategist) and Karen Trau (Perpetual’s Senior Product Manager, Listed and Direct) to take you through some of the key concepts to get you started with ethical investing, including:

  • What’s ethical investing?

  • How do you start investing ethically?

  • The difference between ethical investing and greenwashing

  • What ethical investments are popular with the Sharesies community?

As you’ll learn along the way, there’s a lot going on behind the scenes to ensure ethical investments, like ESG (environment, social, governance), are doing more good than harm—and that value is communicated to potential investors.
