Guidance on ethical finance

The article explains that pensions and investments can be one of the biggest levers for change and one of the greatest impact moves in tackling climate change and building a better future. It encourages businesses to align cash with principles, to check what pension money is invested in, and to consider whether current providers offer a sustainable option.

Suggested ethical banks

For personal accounts, the article lists Triodos, Co-op, Starling, Nationwide, Ecology, Monzo, Revolut, Engage and Cumberland as providers to consider. It also notes that some banks and building societies may offer alternatives to high-risk loans and fossil fuel investment.

Employee pension information

If workplace pensions are provided, the article says employees can be told that they have a choice of an ‘ethical’ option. It states that it is up to them to choose it, but the employer can provide the information.

Check pension investments

The article advises writing to a pension provider to find out exactly what money is invested in. It says pension money could be funding fossil fuels, arms companies, tobacco, polluting or human rights abusing companies, or it could be investing in clean, green companies, like renewable energy, ethical companies and solutions to global problems.

Use bank pressure tools

If a business cannot switch banks, the article suggests using tools like Bank Green to check first and then putting pressure on the bank where it matters most, including concerns about investment in fossil fuels.
