GENEVA, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwired - Feb 2, 2015) - The popularity of Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) has increased greatly in recent years as more investors are compelled by the desire to partake in "impact investing" -- investing money in ways that favourably impact the environment and society while still achieving market-rate returns. However, despite the fact that SRI continues to grow at double-digit rates as an asset class, there still exists a large amount of confusion around the approach. Just ask 10 investment managers to define SRI and you'd likely end up with differing explanations and interpretations of this ever-evolving investment strategy.
