Ethically Minded Investments & Hedge Funds
Growing concerns over issues such as global warming have meant that more investors are looking for an ethically minded fund, especially one that makes a profit. An innovator in ethical investing is Charlie Thomas, head of Jupiter Asset Management, a Citywire AAA-rated hedge fund. Thomas has defied skeptics by proving environmentally friendly investing can produce strong returns in what was a relatively muted year for global fund managers.

Last year he managed returns of 27.8% on the Jupiter Ecology fund, when the average hedge fund manager return was 8.1%. His hedge fund Jupiter now has assets under managementlinks of around $436 million.

I like the way that its profitable, along with the ethical standpoint. Thomas' investment screening for stocks include six green investment themes: clean energy, sustainable living, green transport, waste management, environmental services and water management.
