Baillie Gifford Attends Innovative Ethical Finance Summit

As growing importance is being placed on conscious and ethical consumption by consumers, this growing megatrend is set to become more widely demanded and valued by investors and clients in many industries including the finance industry.

 The Ethical Finance 2019 Summit is being held in Edinburgh and is being attended by over 200 leading finance experts, institutions,  government officials and business representatives from around the world. Amongst those attending include Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and the Archbishop of Canterbury and Baillie Gifford, who is the underlying fund manager of the Ranfurly Superannuation Scheme.

 Summit speaker Jamison Ervin, from the United Nations' Global Programme on Nature for Development stated “we have major financial institutions such as Baillie Gifford and others who are saying, 'how can we green our wallet?', 'how can we look at our pension funds?', 'how can we look at our investments and become greener?'.

 Andrew Cave, Head of Governance and Sustainability at Baillie Gifford, echoed this sentiment, saying “As long-term investors, we understand the importance of considering sustainability issues in the investment process. Therefore, we are delighted to support this important event.”

 Baillie Gifford attending this Ethical Finance Summit signals their proactive approach and investment philosophy. It shows they are committed to, and actively searching for innovative investments and instruments for their clients.
