Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month?

Several funds in my bank have ESG in the name. en.wikipedia.org/…/Environmental,_social,_and_gov…
Other terms in their fund names: fossil-free, climate, forest, sustainable agriculture.
Their claims about them:
(in Finnish) www.s-pankki.fi/…/vastuullisuus-sijoittamisessa/ (in Swedish) www.s-pankki.fi/sv/…/ansvarsfulla-investeringar/ For machine translation, probably better use Swedish as the source because it shares the Indo-European language family with many of you readers’ target languages, and has more speakers so maybe better translation engine training too.

I wasn’t trying to say that ethical funds don’t exist, I’m well aware of them. I was saying that when money is on the line, loyalty and ethics often end up second place.

I’m in the sidelines and I didn’t know they existed and wanted to know more so I’m glad they posted it anyway

These are pretty cool and I didn’t know about them! I’m pretty me to investing, do you just look up ESGs or something?
